Will Dough assisted the Wright Brothers with the construction of their 1911 machine (believed to be pictured here). He lived on the north end of Roanoke Island (near Manteo) and was the grandfather of Ms. Lizzette Headly Daniels. Ms. Daniels grew up in her grandfather's house and resided in Wanchese until her death in April 2002.
Words cannot properly express our deep appreciation to Ms. Daniels for her generosity in allowing us to share this family treasure with visitors to the North Carolina's Outer Banks Internet Initiative. We doubt if this photo has ever been made available to the public prior to its appearance here.
