I'm not finding this lady on Namus - are stats available? Will a profile be entered into Namus?

Also, certain this has been reviewed but wouldn't be doing my due diligence without mentioning it. There is a lady of the same name (with add-on of Wright) who passed in 2020. She does bear some resemblance to the 2nd photo above, and I only bring it to attention because while she lived in Easley, SC she was buried in Spartanburg. I don't want to post that link here because it could draw attention to someone of the same name and same geo-similarity that is Not the same individual. You can find it on a google search with a Find A Grave link.
