  • Name Ila Daisy WRIGHT 
    Born 7 Oct 1896  Elk Lick, McClellan District, Doddridge Co, WV Find all individuals with events at this location  [1
    • Her obituary states that she was born on Oct 7 1896 in Enterprise, Harrison County, WV, while her birth record (a delayed entry filed by her uncle Simon Allen on Jan 22 1943) states that she was born at Elk Lick, Doddridge County, WV, on Oct 7 1897, a daughter of William M. Wright and Ruth Allen. But both of those dates are in conflict with the birth date of her sister Lenora B. Wright, shown in her conventional birth record as born on Mar 17 1897 in Doddridge County, daughter of William M. & Ruth M. Wright. In the 1910 Census, Ila Wright, age 10, was residing in Enterprise with Jesse and Taylor Martin (brothers) and Taylor's wife Mary, her relationship to any of them not stated.
