Miss Estella Viola Gantz was born to Robert A. and Anna Amanda Irwin Gantz in Ohio. Some sources note Estella's birthdate as 3 June 1881.
Estella married William Edwin Wright, Sr. on 18 May 1898. The couple moved to Pennsylvania, and had three children: Paul, Louise Anna, and William Edwin, Jr. All three children moved to California after reaching adulthood.
Estella and William caught the "bug" and followed them. They enjoyed their golden years being close to their kids and grandkids. They had a "ranch" in Lemon Grove, CA, where they raised rabbits for their meat and pelts. Estella's mother had taught her the art of taxidermy, which apparently came in handy on the ranch. Their youngest son, William, died in his sleep from a stroke in 1951, predeceasing his parents.
In 1913 Estella and her mother, Anna Amanda Irwin (Gantz Waggoner Hall!) made the historic march from Pennsylvania to Washington D.C. for Women's Suffrage.
Estella was an exquisitely beautiful and gracious lady. She died in 1956, three years after her husband, William.
