ANSON FRANCIS WRIGHT
A PIONEER CITIZEN
Anson F. Wright, one of the real pioneer citizens of Iron Mountain, died last Monday night at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Erna Young, in Chicago. W.W. Thompson was so informed by a wire from Mrs. Young. Death was due to influenza followed by pneumonia. When Mr. Wright left here for Chicago, several weeks ago, to spend the winter with his daughters, he was in very poor health and his demise was not entirely unexpected. Anson Francis Wright was born at Athens, Penn., and was seventy-five years of age last September. His father was a farmer and lumberman. In 1867, Mr. Wright came west and located at Menekaunee, now a part of Marinette, and engaged in the mercantile business. In 1877 he formed a co-partnership with his brother, Jason K. Wright, now dead, and the same year the firm opened a general store at Quinnesec, at that time the metropolis of the Menominee range. In 1887, the store was removed to Iron Mountain and Mr. Wright continued in business until 1905, when the stock was sold out. The store at Amberg was continued for several years, until the dissolution of the firm.
On September 15th, 1880, Mr. Wright was married to Jane Hawes, of Fond du Lac, who survives him, and is now spending the winter with relatives in Appleton. To this union was born two daughters and two sons. Surviving are
Mrs. Erna Young and Miss Doris H. Wright, with whom Mr. Wright was residing at the time of his death, and Harry A. Wright, who is residing in the west. Jason A., the eldest child, lost his life while bathing in Bass Lake when twelve years of age. In politics, Mr. Wright was a steadfast Democrat. He was very active in the exciting fight attendant upon the organization of Dickinson county and Gov. Winans appointed him county treasurer. While a resident of Breitung township, which then included the (now) City of Iron Mountain, Mr. Wright held the office of treasurer and school director. In Iron Mountain he was for several years a member of the board of education, was elected city treasurer for two terms, and was also city assessor.
From a business viewpoint, Mr. Wright was for many years one of the leading citizens or [sic – of] this district. In addition to operating several stores, Wright Bros. owned several small saw-mills and at one time were the largest dealers in railroad ties and timber in the west. Mr. Wright was one of the organizers of the Commercial Bank and had been an active member of the board of directors ever since its organization. He was also agent of the insurance department.
For the past several years Mr. Wright has been in poor health and has lead a retired life. He possessed a most genial disposition. In his demise the community is bereaved of one of its sturdy pioneers and most interesting characters. He was a most devoted husband and father and the bereaved relatives are assured of the sympathy of many friends.The remains of Mr. Wright arrived here this morning from Chicago, accompanied by the members of the family. Brief services were held at the depot and the remains were then taken to the city cemetery.
Iron Mountain, Michigan, and ex-County Treasurer of Dickinson county, is a wellknown and highly respected man.
Following is a resume of his life:
Anson F. Wright is a native of Pennsylvania, born September 11, 1845, and was reared and educated in Bradford and Tioga counties, that state, his education being finished with a two years' course in a normal school at Mansfield, Pennsylvania. His parents, Jason K. and Maria E. (Ely) Wright, were born in Massachusetts and New York, respectively. They made permanent settlement in the Keystone State and the mother is still residing there, the father having died in Bradford county in 1878. He was a farmer by occupation and a man of some prominence in the community in which he lived, having filled a number of
local offices. During the late war he was Captain of Company K, One-Hundred-and-Forty-first Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, and was in the service more than a year, but on account of ill health he resigned and came home. In their family were ten children, nine of whom are now living:
Edward G., Athens, Pennsylvania; Fred K., Wellsboro, Pennsylvania; Mary G. Parmenter, Menominee, Michigan; Ely,
Minneapolis, Minnesota; Jason K., Marinette, Wisconsin; Maria Fairchild, deceased; Susan H. Caswell, Bradfordcounty, Pennsylvania; Anson F., whose name heads this article; Estella Gillett, Tioga county, Pennsylvania; and Alfred C., Athens, Pennsylvania. Ely and Jason K. were in the Twenty-third New York Volunteer Infantry, and served during the war.
In 1867, when a young man of twenty two, the subject of our sketch came out West and located at Marinette, Wisconsin, where, from that time until 1877, he was engaged in mercantile pursuits. From 1877 until 1889 he carried on business at Quinnesec, Michigan, and in the last named year he became identified with Iron Mountain. Here he has since been engaged in a general merchandise and lumber business, being in partnership with his brother, Jason K., the firm name being Wright Brothers. They have three stores, one located at Amberg, Wisconsin, and the others at Quinnesec and Iron Mountain, Michigan. Their chief attention, however, is given to the lumber business, their operation being on the Lake Superior division of the Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad. They have the exclusive tie business. Also they have the exclusive basswood business of Menasha Wooden
Ware Company, and the pulpwood business of the Fox River Valley Paper Mills. Mr. Wright is a stockholder in the First National Bank and the Commercial Bank; and has been a director in the latter ever since its organization.
In 1880 he was united in marriage to Miss Jennie Hawes, a native of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, born in 1857, daughter of Jason A. Hawes. Her father was a native of Massachusetts and one of the pioneer settlers of Fond du Lac.
Mr. and Mrs. Wright have had three children, namely: Jason Austin, who was drowned August 22, 1894, at the age of thirteen years; and Erna J. and Harry A. Mr. Wright is a member of the Presbyterian Church.
In his political affiliations Mr. Wright is Democratic. When the county of Dickinson was created he was appointed County Treasurer by Governor Winans and was the first to fill that office. In educational matters he has always taken a deep interest. He was President of the School Board of Iron Mountain at the time the high-school [sic – high school] building was erected. A generous and public spirited
man and a man of true worth, he has made many warm friends during his residence in Dickinson county.
