Amanda Finch

• ⚭

  Amanda Finch married Phineas Wright (1811/1812-1874) in Canada. likely

  · Canada · Spouse identity matches the family report (Phineas Wright; report 1812-1874, tree gives birth 25 Oct 1811) and is well-anchored. Downgraded from 'confirmed' to 'likely' on the DATE and PRECISE PLACE only: the marriage date 22 Jan 1836 and province 'Ontario' were not in the report, rest on a single uncited tree, and the 1836 date is internally inconsistent with daughter Sarah Adelia's reported 1835/1837 birth. The general fact of the Wright marriage in Canada is confirmed; the specific date is not. tree ↗tree ↗

  Online genealogy trees record Amanda Finch's death as January 1, 1848 at Voree, Racine County, Wisconsin. likely

  1848-01-01 · Voree, Racine, Wisconsin · Geni and the FamilySearch Family Tree give death as 1 Jan 1848 at Voree, Racine County, Wisconsin Territory. This conflicts with the family report's 1846 / Black River Falls (Jackson Co.), Wisconsin (see discrepancies). Kept at 'likely' (not raised): it rests on uncited online trees with no primary death record, it is one source, and the Voree (southeastern Wisconsin) location is geographically inconsistent with the family's documented 1842-1846 presence in western Wisconsin (Grant Co. and the husband's burial near Black River Falls in Jackson Co.). The Strangite/Voree rationale (daughter Sarah Adelia married a Strang) is speculative. tree ↗

likely death.date: report “1846” vs. found “1848-01-01 (January 1, 1848)”. Geni and the FamilySearch Family Tree give 1 Jan 1848, two years later than the report's 1846. Based on uncited online trees only; no primary death record located. Unresolved.

likely death.place: report “Black River Falls, Wisconsin” vs. found “Voree, Racine, Wisconsin”. Trees place her death at Voree (Racine Co.), the early Strangite settlement in southeastern Wisconsin, vs Black River Falls (Jackson Co.) in the report. Both in Wisconsin. The report's location is supported by the family's documented presence in western Wisconsin (daughter Elizabeth b. 1842 Grant Co.; son Phineas b. 1846 Wisconsin) and husband Phineas being buried at Wrightsville, Jackson Co., near Black River Falls — which argues against the southeastern Voree location. Unresolved.

likely birth.place: report “Johnstown, Nova Scotia, Canada” vs. found “Cornwallis, Kings County, Nova Scotia, Canada”. Trees state Cornwallis/Kings County rather than Johnstown; both are in Nova Scotia. Her parents George Finch and Elizabeth Pierce married at Cornwallis Township, Kings Co., which is consistent with a Cornwallis birthplace, but this rests on uncited trees, not a primary birth/baptism record. Unresolved.
