Wright Brothers Artifact Found

Monday May 12, 2008
Having been in her family for nearly a century, a woman recently decided to sell a utility table via a classified ad. The man who purchased the table, Ron Ciarmello, discovered that the top of this table appeared to be made out of a crate shipped to "W. Wright, Elizabeth City, North Carolina.” Ciarmello contacted Wright-expert Dr. Larry Tise of East Carolina University. Although Tise is still researching this, it seems that this might be the same table used by the Wright brothers in their kitchen. For more information about this newly discovered Wright artifact, read the WITN-TV article.
