Hi Mrs. A.,
regarding the weddings of the "Wright" girls - Beatrice and Agnes (my dad always referred to her as Nancy) that was a long time ago! I had to look up the computer, it was 1955. That made me 14 or 15 years. What I can remember is neither of the girls wanted a double wedding and the were to be married a week apart, but someone did not organise for the snow plough man to make a path to the church, so even though the road was some what clear, you could not get to the front door of the church. It was therefore decided to hold a double wedding the next week and the path to the church was cleared!
The next time I saw Uncle Alexander he was looking after two little boys. Can I assume that you married one of these boys?? I have two photographs one of - Alexander and his wife Jane, holding a little boy with two bottle lambs in the foreground. The other, Alexander in the house watching the two boys very carefully.
I left for Australia in 1965, but I am sure my father William Wright (Bill) and Betty his wife ( Dad remarried in 1961) visited Noble after that. I remember speaking to Betty before she died and she told me about Nancy passing away. She was not to sure about Beatrice and said I think she was living at North Berwick or near there on the coast. She to had lost her husband earlier. Do not know if they had any children, I think Beatrice was a teacher.
Have you done any research into the Wright family? Happy to share if needed.
Also if you would like to see the photographs please send me you email address.
