Hmm....there are two marriages for a Robert R Wright in Claro district in 1951 and 1962. Might not be him of course, but doesn't tally with 30 years in Maidstone.

Oh dear, sorry everyone. I made a complete mess of my post about this. I have been back and edited it. You have the correct Wright family, but Richard was the BROTHER of Robert Wright, therefore Mabel's brother-in-law. I am so sorry about that - don't know what on earth I was thinking of!

Margaret, I no longer have Ancestry, so I am not sure. I know that in 1901 he was in Harrogate at an address in Chatsworth Place with his parents, William and Eliza Wright.
