Wright Family in TN

Surnames: Wright
I have been stuck for years on the Wright family in TN or NC.

I am researching John Jackson Wright, b. abt 1795 in TN. But TN at this time was part of NC and also an independent state, so the records got shuffled around a lot. He died in 1846 in Polk Co., MO.

He married a Jane ???. Possible last names are Smith or Brown. Jane is believed to be from Seneca, Oconee Co., SC. They were believed to have been married in TN abt 1820.

Their first child, Annie Wright, married Isaac Brown who executed his will in MO. I believe that there may have been a strong family association between the Wright's and Brown's in TN. A second daughter also married a Brown. Their father was Hiram Brown.

I have found a James Wright in Greene Co., TN. There was also a Brown whom he operated a mill with. He had a son John Wright, but I can not find a definitive link indicating that this James Wright is the father of the John Wright I have.

Any assistance to breakout of this deadend would be appreciated.
