Status summary
Completed as of October 1, 2020:
- Recruiting patrilineal (all male-line) Richard Wright descendants for NGS/WGS testing. Any male who believes they qualify should Read me First
IMPORTANT: Read me First
Still to do as of October 1, 2020
- NGS/WGS test multiple descendants of Richard Wright to firmly place family clade as well as test descendants to discover any subclades unique to descendants lines
Biography
For more information see Roser, Susan E. and Judith A. Swan, Mayflower Families Through Five Generations vol. 12 Cooke 2017 addendum of 1999 2nd Edition, General Society of Mayflower Descendants, Plymouth, MA.

DNA results R-FT415155
Previous Y-DNA testing
The Wright Y-DNA Project lists seven individuals who have STR tested under their "R - M269 - Family Group 17: R-P312>ZZ11>DF27>Z195>Z198>CTS4188>BY178203>BY91889>BY178000>FT415155".[1] All seven of the individuals have Big Y tested.
Further needed testing
More Y-DNA descendants of Richard Wright are needed to do Next Generation Sequence/Whole Genome Sequence (NGS/WGS) DNA testing to further refine the haplogroup for the family as well as try to further subdivide the descendants.
- ↑ While two individuals do not have the Wright surname, they are a 66/67 match to the Wright family STR values, so it is virtually certain he also descends in a Y-DNA line from Richard Wright. These individuals have Big Y tested and been found to fall under FT415155>FTB42540>415070
