Note: Some family sources give the birth year as 1887. The obituary uses 1888. Since there is no headstone in place for Annie Wright, this memorial will use the obituary provided birth year of 1888. Any clarification would be appreciated.

Maiden name may also be found listed as being "Woolie".

Second wife of Stephen Wright.
