She married Harrie O. Bleecker on November 8th, 1883 in Dodge County.
Harrie died just six years later in
1889.
The 1900 census finds May in Waterloo, Jefferson County
Wisconsin a widow with three children: Vera, who was 15, Leslie at 14 and Harry
at 11 years old. All of the children are
listed in school, and May is listed as a landowner for occupation.
In 1910 May and her children are living in Appleton,
Outagamie County Wisconsin, with her three children still living with her. Leslie, now 24 years old, is listed as a
veterinary surgeon, following the profession of so many in the Wright family.
In 1930 May, at that time 71 years old, is living with her
61 year old sister-in-law in West Covina, Los Angeles County California. One can only speculate how she ended up out
there!
May died in 1942.
