Fitzherbert WRIGHT was born in 1841 at Osmaston Manor, Ashbourne Derbyshire, son of Francis WRIGHT (1806-1873) by Selina FITZHERBERT (1812-188). Francis WRIGHT was also born at Osmaston Manor and was the son of John WRIGHT who married in 1791 at Ashbourne, Elizabeth BERESFORD then of Derbyshire but of an ancient family of Staffordshire. It is the BERESFORD line who are responsible for the numerous quarterings shown, that include the arms of the HASSALL of Cheshire and even earlier the REYNOLDS family. The WRIGHT family's early ancestry is poorly documented and this is the reason that your armorial celebrates so much of the BERESFORD family ancestry. In 1825 Samuel WRIGHT, son of John WRIGHT of Gunthorpe and Nottingham, Nottinghamshire received a grant of arms for the WRIGHT quartering above. Samuel had no issue and by remainder the arms passed to the issue of his father John, allowing Francis WRIGHT and his heirs to become the holders of the WRIGHT arms which, the duly quartered with BERESFORD as above.
