Robert Wright

Robert WRIGHT, alias REEVE d.1642

One of the binding stamps attributed to Robert Wright (British Armorial Bindings)

Biographical Note

Of Thwaite, Suffolk, a member of a long-established gentry family there. Little is recorded about him biographically.

Books

Two armorial stamps are recorded in the Armorials Database which have been attributed to Sir Robert Wright (ca.1634-89), judge, but which on the basis of the heraldry are attributed there to this family. At least one of these books postdates Wright's death in 1642, so this identification is uncertain; Wright's son George (ca.1618-78, MP for Eye) may be involved.
