Thomas Wright was Ari's 6x great-grandfather, and he was born in about 1777 in Fladbury, which is in the Vale of Evesham in Worcestershire.
We have a record of his marriage in 1803 to Mary Loyd, which took place in Rous Lench. This is also where he can be found in the 1841 census (from Ancestry.co.uk), aged sixty-five and an agricultural labourer:
The address is shown as the hamlet of Radford, which has this wonderful postbox:
The 1851 census shows Thomas living with the family of his oldest daughter, Ann. He is described as a pauper (labourer). He died the following year, and was buried at Rous Lench on 15 July 1852.
I have not yet found out who Thomas's parents were.
Ari, this is how you are related to Thomas:
