Posted on: McCurtain County, Ok Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Ok/McCurtain/11393 Surname: Wright ------------------------- Wright City was named for William Wylie Wright, my mothers uncle. As far as I know William never had children, he was killed in WWI and was the first McCurtain County casualty and the town of Bismark was renamed in his honor. I have the book for Wright Citys 75th anniversary. Williams parents were James Marion Wright and Louiza Jane Blackwood-Wright.Hope this helps.
