Samueland George Bright are mentioned in deeds recorded in the 1760's. In abiography of James A. Brite of Allen Co. KY, in Perrrin's History ofKentucky the following is stated: "James Brite was of Irishpatrentage, and was a farmer by occupation; he died in 1825. He wasthe son of Tobias Brite,a native of South Carolina, who came toKentucky in 1805, at his death in 1825, he was upward of 90 years."Tobias Brite of Virginia left Virginia around 1760. Perhaps they arethe same Tobias Bright?

October 1998 NOTES:

I have contacted and received answer from Blanche Colvin BRIGHTin Reedsport, OR. She married Edgar James Franklin Bright, grandsonof James Franklin BRIGHT-- who was the son of Buford and Rebecca andthe brother of Mahala and Mattie Bright...I wrote a letter addressedto her husband, Edgar Bright, after finding it on the Internet.Because of his birth year, I suspected he may be deceased, so Iaddressed my postcard to "Edgar Bright or Descendants". I got verylucky!
Blanche is a young 80, a widow, and had recently begun searchingthe family history of the Bright families. She has a lovely penmanshipand appears to be a lovely lady.
According to her, her husband's Aunt Beatrice, daughter of JamesFranklin, told her that one rainy afternoon when she was about 16,James Franklin said "Sis, get a pencil and paper. There were 16(sixteen) kids in our family and I want you to write them all down asI call them out". She proceeded to write down the names, spelling themas they sounded to her. Never before did anyone have information onJames Franklin Bright and Hannah Elizabeth Settles Bright. They weremarried 7 Feb 1882 in Calvary, Marion County, KY. (Hannah's firsthusband was Bill Hickinbotham--m. 13 Dec 1877. Bill died 22 May1878.)
