: QUADRUPLETS, inasmuch as "wright", independently of "cartwright, wheelwright, 
: etc." would seem to qualify as a word on its own.  Are there any other other 

Yes, wright is independent word, though I suspect it's becoming archaic.
It means to make, create, to bend into form. The wr- is the same as
as in wrist.
