Name John WRIGHT Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 11 Nov 1878 Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Northumberland, England 
- From the 1891 census, where shown as aged 13. A lot of census entries in this family seem to indicate the age reached in the year of the census, not by the time of the census. In this case not even that, if John's birth was registered the year he was born, but a birth registered in q1 was often for a birth late the previous year. The 1939 register confirms that to be the case here.
