Lord John Wright (1488 - October 5, 1551) was a member of the English aristocracy and worked closely with King Henry VIII during the latter's rule. Biography Wright was born in 1488 in Kelvedon, Kelvedon Hatch, Essex, England.[1] He was born to Reverend John Wright (27 October 1450 - 5 May 1509) and wife Agnes (born in Dagenham, Essex).[2] The younger John Wright was christened 12 July 1488, in Dagenham, Essex.[3] In 1509 Wright married Olive Hubbard (1487 - Oct, 1560).[4] Wright was a yeoman in England that was "very useful" in King Henry VIII's battle with the Pope to secede from the Roman Catholic Church and form the Church of England. With support from the King, Wright became "quite wealthy" and was granted a baronetcy on 20 June 1509.[5] The baronetcy included a coat of arms for the Wright family along with the inheritable title,[6] a seat on the King's council and an appointment as a member of the King's House of Lords.[1] Wright was styled with both Sir[6] and Lord[3] from that point forward. In 1538 Wright purchased Kelvedon Hall from Richard Bolles for £493 6s 8d. The estate stayed in the Wright family almost four centuries until 1922 through the descendants of John Wright (b. 1510), the eldest of Wright's children. In the 18th century, the manor was rebuilt by the seventh John Wright.[5] Wright died at age 63 on 5 October 1551 at Dagenham Manor, at Kelvedon Hatch, Essex. He had had a will drawn up on 25 September 1551, and per his request in the will was buried in the chancel of Kellydon Church.[5] Children Children of Wright are listed in birth order, including three separate Johns: John Wright, b. 1510, Kelvedon, Essex, England, d. 10 Oct 1563, Kelvedon Hall, Kelvedon Hatch, Essex, England Katherine Wright, b. 1512, Kelvedon, Essex, England, d. 01 Jan 1595, Navistock, Essex, England Robert Wright, b. 09 Apr 1516, Kelvedon, Essex, England, d. 25 Jan 1587, Kelvedon Hatch, Essex, England Alice Wright, b. 10 May 1519, Kelvedon, Essex, England, d., Kelvedon, Essex, England John Wright, b. 19 Jan 1522, d. 1558.
