William Wright, an early settler of Swanzey, was killed by the fall of a great beam in a barn, in 1810. His son, Luther was born there and moved to Middlebury, Vt., where he lived for a time, but afterwards returned to Swanzey and died in Winchester, in 1838. He married Rhoda, sister of the Hon. Elijah Bleding, and reared a family of twelve children, two of whom are now living. One son, William, resides on road 17, in this town, is one of the selectmen, and has held the office of justice of the peace since 1850. He was town representative in 1849 and 1850, and has been largely engaged in settleing estates, &c.
