FTDNA places him under Anthony Wright of Bucks PA 1680ish-1749, See Wrights of Philadephia by Charles Blythe Wright
The closest YDNA goes to William Ed Wright drisotreegmail
Thomas Wright was a boat builder, and appears in Philadelphia City Directories starting in 1837, at locations near the Kensington Methodist Church, mostly in what is now called "Fishtown".
Thomas' 1861 death certificate says he was buried at the "Palmer Ground", which is the Palmer cemetery in "Fishtown".
I was told that all the cemetery records prior to about the 1880s burned.
Thomas Wright's son Jacob, and his son-in-law William Reed, were both glassblowers.
I'm now fairly certain that Thomas Wright, my earliest known Wright, attended church services at the Kensington Methodist Church in Philadelphia, and was married there in 1833 to a woman named Mary Smith.
The Kensington Methodist Church is now closed. The building is about 1/2 mile north of the Historic St. George's Methodist Church, almost under the Ben Franklin bridge.
My Wright family might have gone to the St. George's Methodist Church prior to the opening of the Kensington Methodist Church, assuming they joined the Methodists when the Methodists moved into Philadelphia.
A Thomas Wright was accepted into membership at St. George's Methodist Church in 1811. Perhaps he was a relative.
Williams tree also includes Moses and Aaron L Wright

There is confusion with a baptist background.
