     Joseph Quick was born in Kentucky, about one mile from Cininnati, Ohio... He followed his parents to Canada, and after his father's death he carried on the clearing of the farm and homestead, a tract of 200 acres in Lot 8, given his father by the government as a reward for his loyalty... Joseph Quick died of typhoid fever, at a ripe old age, passing away Aug. 29, 1845, aged seventy-six. In Gosfield South, County of Essex, he married Susanna Munger.

Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers & Co., Toronto, p. 593-594:
Thomas L. Wright, one of the prominent representative farmers of Colchester South, County Essex, belongs to one of the old pioneer families, the founder of which was Henry Wright...
     Philip Wright, the grandfather of Thomas L. Wright, was born Jan. 5, 1775, at Rutland, Pennsylvania, and came with his parents to Grosse Ile, later to Malden, where he married a Miss Dowler, who died leaving one daughter, Anna, ... Philip Wright married (second) Delilah Malott, born June 30, 1786, on Grosse Ile, and to them came these children: ... Philip S., father of our subject, is mentioned below; ...
     Philip Wright, being of age when he came to this township, received a 200-acre grant of land adjoining that of his father. When he married he took the rear half of Lots 75 and 76, and upon Lot 75 chose the site of his home...
     Philip S. Wright, father of Thomas L. Wright, was born Dec. 4, 1813, on the old home near the elm tree and the spring, and attended the log school in the vicinity, one of his first teachers being a Robert Thompson. Here he married Mary Quick, who was born May 21, 1811, daughter of Cornelius Quick, originally from Pennsylvania, and died at the age of eighty-one years, her husband dying at the age of seventy-nine. After his marriage Philip S. Wright began farming on the present Daniel Wright place, which he bought and occupied for some years, and later, by a trade, secured a part of the old home land, some eighty acres, which he cleared. He built a home on the north part of the lot and at a later date replaced his first house with the one now occupied by his son Gordon. Prior to his death he acquired eighty additional acres. Although he began life with no implements but an axe and a hoe, he possessed an unusual amount of sound, common sense and unlimited industry, and he became one of the leading and wealthy farmers of the township. Mr. Wright was a man of intelligence and a great reader until an affection of the eyes prevented their use. He was a fluent speaker, and on many occasions publicly advocated the cause of temperance, of which he was an exponent. Under different circumstances and more favorable conditions Philip S. Wright would doubtless have become a brilliant professional man, possessing as he did all the necessary attributes. Politically he was a Reformer and took a great interest in all public movements.
     The children born to Philip S. Wright and his wife were as follows: Ebenezer, born Feb. 7, 1836, is a farmer on Concession 4, and married Harriet Halstead; Cornelius, born Feb. 12, 1838, married Lorinda Patton and lives north of Harrow; William G., born Sept. 22, 1840, married (first) Rebecca Wright, and (second) Mary Walters, and lives in Harrow; Delilah Ann, born Dec. 13, 1842, married Judson S. Patton, of Amherstburg; Joseph, born Nov. 13, 1844, married Marian Lockhart and lives north of Harrow; Thomas L. was born March 25, 1847; Angus E., born Jan. 10, 1850, lives in Harrow; Gordon P., born Dec. 7, 1854, has the home place.
