WILLIAM L. WRIGHT, a farmer residing on section 29, in the town of Porter,
is numbered among the early settlers of the county who shared in the trials
and privations of pioneer days. He was born April 22, 1809, in Livingston
County, N.Y., and is a son of William and Mary (Bullard) Wright, who were
also natives of the Empire State. His father was three times married. Shortly
after his first marriage his wife died leaving one child, Abigail, who is also
deceased. He was a farmer by occupation, and removed to Genesee
County, N.Y., where he wedded Mary Bullard, and three children were born
of their union, namely: Almira, who became the wife of Ziba Balcolm, who
resided in Indiana until her death; Mary, who died at her home in New York,
and William L., the subject of this sketch. The mother of this family was
called to her final rest while residing in Indiana. The third wife of Mr. Wright
was Mrs. Plumilla Balcolm, a native of Connecticut, by whom he had nine
children - Asa, Plumilla, Eli, Anna, Julia, Clarinda, Emiline, Mercy Ann and
Lucy.
In 1851 William Wright, Sr., removed with his family to Wisconsin, where
he passed the remainder of his days. His third wife died after a few years'
residence in this state. When the late war broke out he enlisted in his
country's service, continuing until the close of hostilities. He was a
recognized leader of the Republican party, was an enthusiastic and
inflexible adherent to its principles and felt a deep interest in its success. He
was a man well informed on all the leading topics of the day, was highly
respected in the community where he resided, and his death, which
occurred at the home of his daughter in Northern Wisconsin, was deeply
mourned.
