Lloyd-Florence Family Timeline

Below is an attempt to put the photos of Lloyd and Florence Wright’s immediate family on this blog onto a timeline. Naturally the dates that photos were taken are not always known with precision, so this is just my best guess based on available information. Click on any photo in the timeline to be taken to the blog post concerning that photo.

As I post photos to the blog, I will add them to the timeline. At some point the timeline will grow to the point of being unwieldy (if it isn’t already). So I may have to break it into sections eventually.
