The year of birth of 1853 listed at the top of this memorial is an estimate based on her age's being listed as 7 in the 1860 Federal Census (see image). Conflicting evidence: The date of death and age on the tombstone suggest a later year of birth, abt 1855, but she couldn't have been born in 1855 and already have been 7 in the 1860 census.

Additional son of Elwood and Nancy/Nannie who has not yet been linked (as of 15 Jun 2013):
Benson Foraker Wright (1886-1970); married Ora Mae Shaw; was his last residence, according to the SSDI, Rowan Co, KY? Where is he buried? [A quick look at Internet sites on 15 June 2013 leads me to believe one or more genealogists have erroneously credited Benson Foraker Wright with the wrong parents, so be cautious.]
