1943 'MR. WALTER WRIGHT. The death has occurred at Stratford-on-Avon of Mr. Walter Wright, who was in his seventy-ninth year. As a youth he studied engineering at the Midland Institute and, at the age of twenty-three, he founded, with the late Mr. W. Timbrell, the firm of Timbrell and Wright, machine tool manufacturers. After a few years he severed his connection with the firm and went into private practice as consulting engineer. In 1913 he founded the Wright Engineering Company in Birmingham, but suffered from the economic conditions following the last war. In 1922, at the age of sixty, he returned to Stratford-on-Avon (his birthplace) and founded the Wright Engineering Company.'
