    This is Miss Marjorie Brown (1892-1988) of Atlanta.

    Marjorie was a daughter of First Lady Ellen Wilson's cousin, Colonel Edward T. Brown of Atlanta. She had two brothers, Edward M. and Henry W. Brown. [1] [2]   Growing up in Georgia, Marjorie was a long-time childhood friend of Jessie and Eleanor Wilson, and she later shared her college years with Jessie in Princeton.

    Marjorie attended Miss Jessie Wilson as one of five bridesmaids at her White House wedding to Francis B. Sayre in November, 1913, and she was also a special guest at the wedding of Eleanor Wilson, six months later at the White House. [3] [4]   A portrait of Marjorie Brown appeared in The Atlanta Constitution on November 9, 1913. (shown below)

    Marjorie married Benjamin M. King in Washington, DC, in December, 1920. Miss Margaret Wilson, daughter of the president, was maid of honor, and former First Lady Edith Wilson was among the guests. [5]

    Benjamin King had been engaged to Eleanor Wilson. He was the manager of a lumber camp near Madera, Mexico when Eleanor met him while traveling with friends in 1913. The President and Mrs. Wilson liked King and approved of the engagement. However, Eleanor broke the engagement when she met William McAdoo later in 1913. Wilson and King remained friends, and after Benjamin and Marjorie married they would visit the Wilson’s. [6]

    Simple, elegant, and there is something about those beautiful eyes.

    Nice

    Robert Lesti No they don't - a bit grim, in fact! But maybe that was shyness or the sense of occasion...

    They are very serious looking but all four are quite handsome. The poor bridesmaid looks frozen as the dresses look to be made from a very light material.

Sisters, Sisters, we are such devoted sisters..

    Too recent for the irishgeneology records.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    There are 7 O'Briens in Killinick in 1911, but probably not any of these folks from the look of them. Thomas, 48, has children from 17 down to 5. The other two and Andrew and Ellen, both single. I don't see a Mathew O'Brien in the births in Wexford either, but he could be born after 1920 and not published, or (given the time gap), he might just have moved, the spoilsport.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The previous shot in the catalogue is 14 September, the next dated on is two along, 23rd November. I don't have an archive subscription for the Irish Times, but there I do get a hit on Mathew O'Brien in Births, Marriages and Deaths for Saturday 22nd October 1949.
  • John Spooner said:
    Not exactly earth-shattering, but the New Ross Standard needed something to fill some space at the bottom of a column on Friday 13 January 1950
    Mr. Matthew O'Brien, Killinick, last week collected a large quantity of blackberries on an outfarm. The fruit was in excellent condition.
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Niall McAuley Niall, I've checked Saturday, 22nd October 1949, and can't find that hit on Mathew. Searched back page with all the usual Births/Marriages/Deaths, and also page 7 with social announcements, engagements, and "marriage will take place between..." and can't find any O'Brien...
