"Robert W. Wright was born October 31, 1840, and is a son of James G. and Sallie (Caruthers) Wright, the latter a daughter of Major William Caruthers. James G. Wright is a native of North Carolina, was a physician and practiced in his native State, then in Tennessee, and then in Red River and Lamar counties, Texas and in this State ended a long and useful life, dying a Free Mason. His four children were named---Mauma D., William C., Josephine and Robert W.
Robert W. Wright began his business life as a live-stock trader in Lamar county, Texas, purchasing Spanish ponies in old Mexico and selling them in Texas to great advantage, with the exception of those the Indians stole from him. He next engaged in the cattle business proper, stocking a ranch in Hardeman county, which he still retains, but has a splendid farm in Denton county, to which he gives his chief attention. He married Miss Arkana E. Gober, daughter of John W. Gober, a native of Georgia, and of the twelve children born to this union, eight are living and named--- Mary E., Robert G., Neal M., James W., Fred. E., Mattie M., Inez Vitille and Julia S; the deceased were --- Josephine, Lee Z. (the eldest, who died in infancy) one who died before it was old enough to be named and Sallie L., who died of burns received while playing around the fireplace during her parents' absence from home.
Mr. Wright is a Free Mason and an Odd Fellow, and his wife an ardent worker in the Sabbath-school of the Cumberland Presbyterian church, of which denomination she is a devout and faithful adherent. During the late war Mr. Wright served in Company D., under Captain Canada, of Arizona, in Madison's regiment, and participated in the battles of Mansfield, Pleasant Hill, Yellow Bayou, all in Louisiana and in many skirmishes. On the occasion of Banks' retreat he was in the saddle forty days and at Pine Bluff, Arkansas, his horse was shot in the head, but not killed, however. On returning to Texas from this fight the regiment was disbanded and Mr. Wright united with a party to protect the settlers from Indian incursions in a combat with whom he again had his horse short from under him. Later, July 29, 1866, while in a fight with a gang of white horse-thieves who had run off fifty-three horses, Mr. Wright was shot in his right side, the ball coming out on the left. After the conclusion of hostilities, Mr. Wright resumed a peaceful life of a farmer, and now owns a farm of 620 acres."

Robert Washington Wright was buried at Miami Cemetery, Miami, Roberts County, Texas. He died at Miami, Roberts County, Texas.
