Wright Family Reunion


This undated photograph is of a Wright family reunion, presumably held at the home of Joseph Wright on Ferguson Road.
The back of the photo identifies my maternal great-grandfather, Virgil Lee Wright, as being in the first row, the first one from the right, standing with his mother behind him. Since Virgil was born in 1894, this reunion probably took place in the 1910s.
