Hi Searcher,
Here they are on the 1881 Census:-

Bradford, Yorkshire.
RG11/4444 Folio 52 Page 7

John Wright Head Mar 35 Shuttlemalter& Turner Born Lincoln, Lincs
Mary E. Wright Wife 38 Born Burnley Lancs
Matilda Ward Step Dau 19 Born Stanningley
James Ward Stepson 15 Born Stanningley
Thos. W. Ward Stepson 11 Born Shipley
William Wright Son 7 Born Leeds
John Wright Son 5 Born Leeds
Florence Wright Dau 4 Born Stanningley
Hannah Dovey Boarder 17 Born Clyshire Kent.

The interesting thing here is that Mary E. must have been a widow when William Wright married her. She must be the mother of the 3 Wright children though as I have found this marrige registration for you:-

Marriages Bradford June quarter 1873 Vol 9b Page 75
William Wright & Mary Elizabeth Ward.

Cheers Jeremy.

Hi again Searcher,
Also found this death registered:-

Bradford 1881 June quarter Vol 9b Page 59

Death Mary Elizabeth Wright age 41.

(Slight difference in age with census but I bet its Johns wife)

Jeremy.
