Grand Aunt Of Husband
Bessie T. Wright was born 18 Oct 1894 in Taylor County, Kentucky. She appeared with her parents in the census for 1900 and 1910. In 1900 she was 6 years old and in 1910 she was 16. She married about the time the census was taken. There is a Taylor County Marriage Record: Taylor County Marriage book 17, page 243
Groom: Herlie B. Miller, 18, farmer, TC Bride: Bessie T. Wright, 17, TC (If 18 Oct 1894 birthdate is correct, she would not be 16 until Oct 18 1910) Bond: Herlie B. Miller & Mac (X) Wright Married: 17 May 1910 at Thomas Miller's in TC by Rev. I. J. Hutcherson Witnesses: Jeff Morris & Mc Wright Groom's Parents: Tom W. Miller, TC; Nannie Miller, TC Bride's Parents: Ed Wright, TC; Mariah Wright, Unknown Remarks: Certificates from parents of each, A daughter, Kate (Mattie) Miller was born to this marriage on 16 Apr 1911. Bessie died shortly after the birth of the daughter, or perhaps from complications from the birth. I did not locate a death certificate for her. Herley Burges Miller died 5 Oct 1948. His Obituary said Bessie died 36 years earlier which would be about 1912. The burial location for Bessie could possibly be Mt. Carmel Baptist Church cemetery. This is where most of her immediate family is buried. However, another possibility would be the Wright-Martin Cemetery where her grandfather was buried in 1907.
