Birth date unknown but possibly on or about 1899 and died from childbirth or from complications of childbirth in Aug 1927. The only evidence that we know that the name is May Wright is from a Common Book of Prayers that my grandmother has kept. The writing on the first page from the prayer book " May Wright from W. Fowler, May 1915." Which makes us to believe that May Wright would have received this prayer book at age 16 during congregation/communion ( whatever the term is called ). For which she would have been born in 1899. May Wright died in Sandringham, Victoria, Australia or somewhere in Victoria, Australia in Aug 1927 in a private medical clinic. My grandmother Boronia May Dawn Holmes born in Melbourne or Sandringham, Victoria, Australia on 10 Aug 1927. My grandmother's father is Thomas William Henry Holmes. He and May Wright had an affair in 1927, Thomas at age 68 and May in her late 20s. Thomas and May never married since Thomas was already married to Blanche Emily Peregalli and had two daughters. There was no death record for May Wright when she died, and no birth record for my grandmother Dawn. But possibly a baptismal record for my grandmother, for which I will try to find when we visit my grandparents at some point.
