Thank you kindly Marcus,

But I'm afraid that I don't know where the cemetry is.

My notes are taken from the book " Major Francis Wright and Anne Washington
with Allied Families" by Anne Reed Ritchie, pp. 37 & 38 which indicates that
John Wright I (s/o Major Francis Wright & Anne Washington) and his wife Dorothy
Awbrey are both buried on the Wright estate in Prince William Co VA (formerly
Stafford Co) located above Chappawanseck Creek near the present site of the
U.S. Marine Station at Quantico, VA.....Anne Washington was the daughter of Col
John Washington (great grandfather of George Washington).

Do you have any idea where that is ?

Thank you again,
malinda jones
