Descendants of Wilson Robert Wright

 

 

Generation No. 1

 

1.  WILSON ROBERT1 WRIGHT was born 1876 in Michigan, and died 1954 in Brinton, Michigan.  He married (1) LILLIE CALKINS.  She died 1918.  He married (2) LILLIE FIELDS May 19, 1922, daughter of JAMES FIELDS and EDNA TAYLOR.  She was born October 23, 1902 in Isabelle County, and died February 05, 1976 in Cadillac Hospital, Cadillac, Michigan.

 

Notes for WILSON ROBERT WRIGHT:

Wilson Wrights grandmother's name was Ester Calkoline.  She came from Canada and was an Indian.

I have a copy of a tin type picture of her.

 

His mothers remarried a Reyson after Wilson's father died.  I have several pictures of her. I do not know the name of Wilson Wright's father.

 

Wilson had three brothers, Charles, John and George.

Charles died when he was about 13 after an ice or roller skating accident.  He fell and hit his head.

The accident happened in the Crystal Lake Area.

 

Information from Roberta Baskerville as told to her by Pete Wright.

 

In 1918 the Wright Family came down with Swine Flu and was hospitalized.  Pete remembered being in the Hospital and seeing a the orderlies wheel a body, covered with a sheet, down the hallway past his room, with Pete's father walking solemnly behind, hat in hand.  Their mother had died.  After her death the older boys were sent to live with their grandparents, and the twin boys, Lyle and Leonard were adoped out.  Lyle was adoped to Dr. and Mrs. Charles M. Baskerville who lived in Mount Plesant, Michigan.   Leonard was adoped to a family by the name of Klungzinger.

 

Lyle remembered as a young child a man would stop by every so often to visit and play with him.  One time he brought a puppy up on the porch for him to play with.  This went on for several years until Lyle heard his Mother tell the man not to come anymore... that Lyle was getting older and she was afraid he might start asking questions.  It turned out that the visitor was Lyle's birth father.  As the custom of the time, the twins were never told they were adopted, nor that they were twins, even though they attended the same school and were in the same grade.  One day the teacher was explaining to the class the difference between identical twins and fraternal twins and used Lyle and Leonard as examples...  It was a terrible shock for both of them and Lyle ran home crying.  Since Dr. Basterville was a prominent citizen, the teacher was dismissed.  It was not Lyle was an adult that he went back to find his birth family and was able to meet his birth father and his other siblings.
