Individual Details

Delia "Dilly" WRIGHT

(1825 - Bef Apr 1858)



1850, Randolph Co MO Census.
J. Belsher age 35, b. Kentucky. Dilly age 25, b. KY.
John R. 9, Rebecca 6, James 3 and Elizabeth age 12, all born in MO.
Did Dilly fudge a bit on her age or should the 12 after Elizabeth's name been a number of months. Elizabeth is listed last. It's also possible Elizabeth is a child of Belsher's by an earlier marriage.

Delia was listed as a deceased daughter in the will of her father. Living next to her sister Mary & husband "R" Belsher in 1860 is:
James Belsher, age 44, b. KY. Children all born in MO.
John R. age 20, "C" a female age 16, "J" a male age 12 and "E" age 8.
