  5. Frank's birth record identifies him as Frank, and his first marriage plus two census call him Frank (1850) or Frank B (1910). But all other records (3 other marriages, several censuses, etc.) found so far refer to him as B. Frank Wright, including a Supreme Court review of his will. The identification of Frank is largely based on the parents identified in his marriage records.
