"Seattle and Environs, 1852-1924." Vol. 3. Hon. C. H. Hanford, Editor. Pioneer Historical Pub. Co., 1924. p. 191. RAYMOND GARFIELD WRIGHT Raymond Garfield Wright, a well known attorney of Seattle, is fitted by natural ability and by training for the legal profession, in which he has won a gratifying measure of success. A native of Ohio, he was born in Lebanon, on the 6th of January, 1880, and his parents were Lot and Louisa (Jurey) Wright. Following his graduation from the Lebanon high school he entered Princeton University at Princeton, New Jersey, from which he won the A. B. degree, and he next became a student in the law school of Harvard University at Cambridge, Massachusetts, which conferred upon him the degree of LL..B. He has since followed his profession and in September, 1907, arrived in Seattle, being at that time a young man of twenty-seven years. During the intervening period he has built up a large practice and has successfully handled important litigated interests. He prepares his cases with great thoroughness and his arguments are forceful and convincing, while his deductions are at all times logical. At Lawrenceville, New Jersey, on the 16th of June, 1910, Mr. Wright was married to Miss Elizabeth McPherson, a daughter of Dr. S. J. McPherson, a prominent resident of that place. Mr. and Mrs. Wright have three children: Lucy, Willard Jurey and Elizabeth. Mr. Wright is identified with the Masonic order and also belongs to the University Club of Seattle, while in religious faith he is a Presbyterian. He holds to high standards in professional service and through wide reading and close study is continually enlarging his field of usefulness. ******************* Submitted to the Washington Biographies Project in October 2009 by Diana Smith.
