Summary

Description
English: Arms of Wright of Sutton Hall in the parish of Burnt Bradfield in Suffolk. Edmund Wright (d.1583) of Sutton Hall and of Buckenham Tofts in Norfolk was a Member of Parliament for Steyning in Sussex in 1559. He married Frances Spring, a daughter of the clothier Sir John Spring (d.1547) of Lavenham, Suffolk. He was the second son and eventual heir of Robert (or Edmund) Wright of Sutton by his wife Jane Russell, a niece of John Russell, 1st Earl of Bedford (1485-1555). Sutton Hall had been inherited by Jane Russell from her mother Jane Jervace (or Gervas) (wife of Thomas Russell), daughter and heiress of John Jervace of Sutton. The arms of Wright were: Sable, a chevron engrailed between three fleurs-de-lys or on a chief of the last three spear heads azure. (Howard, Joseph Jackson, ed. (1868). The Visitation of Suffolke, made by William Hervey, Clarenceux King of Arms, 1561, with additions from family documents, original wills, Jermyn, Davy, and other MSS, &c.: Vol 2. Lowestoft & London, p.289). Edmund Wright by his wife Frances Spring left daughters and co-heiresses, one of whom was Anne Wright, heiress of Sutton Hall and of Barrett's Hall in Whatfield, who married Sir John Heigham of Barrough Hall.
