My Mother Sarah Bright Miles at the age of 67 years while visiting
the New York
City Library in 1967, she and my doughter Lanell Miles 13 years
found a sketch
or small book on the Penn. Bright or Brecht family. We had it copied
and
brought it with us. Sarah took this "Historical Sketch of the Bright
Family" by
A. G. Green to the Salt Lake City Genealogical Society and with
their help
found on page 3 in the beginning paragraph finds this John Brights
born 1764
father.  Also p 6, p 12. This John born 1764 is found on page 14.
This John
married Susanna Ginther and followed his Uncle Michael to Tennessee
p12.  All
the Bright Family rejected this finding of my mother but as time has
past most
believe it because there is no one who has found a better conection.
   I honor
my mother Sarah for her great Genealoogical ability and her
determination to do
research even though she lived in poverty and many times what she
spent on
research she had to go without food, cloths or something else. Dale

                   The sealing was done at the Seattle Temple when the Miles children
met  to do this work 17 Sep 1988. Neola P. Miles was baptised for her
on 10 Sep 1988 and Endowment was done for her by Laura M. Cole on 16
Sep
1988.  I do not know why the Temple had us do this work the second
time.
