Thinking I lost a right rear wheel bearing

Driving along today I heard a rhythmic squeaking noise from the right rear. It went from nothing to something nearly instantly. Pulling the parking brake did not change it. Rolling along in neutral did not change it. Faster tire rotation equaled faster / higher pitched squeaking. Turning right did relieve it some. Regular braking only changed it to a slower repeating squeak as the car slowed. At 50 MPH it would get very high and then disappear altogether, or almost so. At slow speeds it was a painful wail.

Sound like a wheel bearing?
