Mary Elizabeth Moseley

1858-1887

 

Mary Elizabeth Moseley was the oldest daughter of Easton and Margaret Moseley. She was born in Taney County, Missouri in 1858. She would become the third wife of Nathan Wright, when they married in Swan Township, Taney Co., MO on December 1, 1879.

Mary died Nov 2, 1887 in Bradleyville, Taney Co., MO, ten days after her husband died.  She is believed to be buried alongside Nathan in the Patterson Cemetery, Bradleyville, MO in an unmarked grave.  There is a depression next to Nathan's grave which would lead one to believe this is her final resting place.
