MUSCOE, WRIGHT -
I am searching for information in Virginia concerning Musco Wright, who was born in ca.
1750/51, parents unknown. He married Mary, maiden name unknown, in ca. 1766 to ca. 1779. Their
children were named: Thomas, Joseph Henry, Caleb, Martin, Ann, and possibly James, Lewis, and
William, just in case he may have named a couple of them after his parents. They left the state
after Jan. of 1778.
Musco Wright was in the 10th Virginia
Regiment, 2nd. Brigade, 5th Division, under Capt. Richard Stevens, during the Revolutionary War.
Some of the other Wright's in his unit were named: Moses, Richard, Parsons, Paul, Thomas,
William, Robert, and James, just in case a few of them may have been his brothers.
It is believed that possibly he could have been the product of the marriage of 2
old VA. families...Muscoe and Wright, who originated in St. Anne's Parish, Essex
County, VA. However, it is also said that the 10th Virginia Regiment was comprised of soldiers
from the western part of VA.
I am searching for any information that you
might have concerning Musco Wright and his family origins in VA., and any help would be very much
appreciated.

gardens and vineyards. Anthony lived and worked at Monticello and on land given the group by
Thomas Jefferson until he joined the Revolutionary War in 1777 and served three years. He
received land on the western frontier (which later was Lincoln County TN) as a result of his
service.
Anthony and Mary Polly had 10 children. After she died, he married Sarah
Rambles with whom he had 8 additional children.
Children of Anthony Mullins and
Mary Polly CLARK were: Elizabeth "Betsy" b. 1785, William b. 1788, Margaret Peggy Mullins
