They were born and raised in Dayton, [[Ohio]]. Their father was a bishop. From an early age both of them showed an interest in flight, often sitting on the beach and observing birds as they dreamed of someday flying themselves.

This first flight of the "Wright Flyer", completed by Orville Wright, was at an altitude of 12 ft and had a distance of 120 ft.
