Fanny L. Wright:
Born: 25 Jun 1800, West Flushing, Queens, NY.
Parents: William Wright & Mrs. Jane Wright
Mrd: George Wallace Birch, 25 Feb 1834, Flushing, Queens, NY.
Children: William Augustus Birch, born 13 Jun 1836, Brighton, Livingston, Mi.
Jane Elizabeth Birch, born 28 Aug 1839, Brighton, Livingston, Mi.
Date of death for Fanny & children not known.

LDS records show Fanny sealed to G. W. Birch 24 Apr 1854. This was 6 years
after G. W. married 2nd wife, Susan Payne, and & 2 years after the birth of
G. W. & Susan's 2nd child in Ogden, Ut. Because of this it can be assumed(?)
that Fanny's ordination was not performed by her.
The dates of the endowment work that was done for the children (William bapt
Apr 1847, Jane bapt Jun 1847, both endowed 24 Apr 1854, and sealed to
parents 19 Nov 1959) indicates again that the work was not performed by
themselves. This indicates that they were deceased prior to 1847 based on
LDS rules for ordinance work.
