2. | Willis Wright (1.Peter1) was born about 1876 in Johnson County, Nebraska; died about 1886 in Johnson County, Nebraska. |
3. | Hezekiah Wright (1.Peter1) was born between 1872 and 1874 in Johnson County, Nebraska; died between 1872 and 1874 in Johnson County, Nebraska. Notes:
Kevin Wright indicates that Hezekiah died at 4 months of age.

4. | Peter Carleton Wright (1.Peter1) was born before 1880; and died. Notes:
A biography of Hezekiah Strong notes that daughter Ella had three children, one of whom survived and was living with his grandparents as of the publication date, circa 1890's. That grandson was listed as CARLTON WRIGHT. However, at the time of the 1880 census, it appears that Ella was already deceased, and that only her four year old son, Willis Wright was living with his grandparents. Perhaps Carlton and Willis were the same person? Kevin Wright, a descendant of Peter Wright through his second wife, has no information about Peter Carleton Wright, but does indicate he was the third child of Ella and Peter.
