I don't know. I thought that George A Wright was the banker and son of Dr. W. H. Wright; my W. H. Wright was a sewing machine agent in Glasco.

Mildred M Jones is 2 months old living with W. H. Wright
I believe Mildred was the daughter of Annette [called Nettie] and granddaughter of William H. and Ida May because Annette died young. I wonder if Annette Wright married a Jones in Cloud County and died in childbirth??

Eliza Bennett Mother-in-Law & Widowed again Age 66
Ida Mae Wright married John W. Smith. Eliza, who was living with them, had to have married a third time to a Bennett.
In Wyuka Cemetery in Lincoln, NE, John W. Smith and Ida M have 3 plots, but only 2 burials (theirs). I wonder if it were intended for Eliza, but she is not buried there; it's an empty plot.
Therefore, I wonder if she was returned to be buried by her first husband William H. Wright. I don't know where William H. Wright is buried, but I assume Glasco, Cloud County.
WILLIAM H. WRIGHT, born about 1843-1846 in Ohio, died 10 Sep 1887 in Cloud County, Kansas

Then Eliza married a Jacob Cossel, then a Mr. Bennett
