Judge William WRIGHT was born on 10 February 1896, to Cyreneus Judge "Charlie" WRIGHT and Jane P. HOSEY WRIGHT in Creek Indian Nation, Indian Territory (McIntosh County,Oklahoma). He died 18 January 1968 in his own home on the 160 acres of Creek Indian Grant land that we was awarded via the Dawes Commission located south of Checotah, McIntosh County, Oklahoma.


"Uncle" Judge William never married. He lived on the Creek Indian Grant Land he had received via the Dawes Roll until his death. His mother Jane P. HOSEY-WRIGHT lived with him. I remember visiting both of them when I was 10 years old. Uncle Judge and I fished for catfish in the farm pond. He and I drove to an adjoining farm to pick a watermelon. I recall clearly that 'Uncle Judge' would cut a watermelon and eat the center out of it saying, 'This is the best part!'. They raised a few cows and I remember being afraid of the bulls in the pasture. I remember clearly the storm shelter next to the house that my Great grandma Wright stored fruit in.
