  Birth	12 Jan 1792	Knowlton Township, Warren Co., NJ   [2]
  Gender	Female
  Death	There has always been considerable debate as to the accuracy of this event for this person. It has long been assumed that the Wisconsin death reported in 1873, was for Elizabeth (Wintersteen) Wright, most likely because of the proximity of known children in nearby counties and no other explanation of this Elizabeth (Wintersteen) Wright's death elsewhere. Many believe this was not in fact Elizabeth (Wintersteen) Wright, but someone else entirely. See a more detailed explanation here.
