If you click on the Flickr LOC tag for WINSLOW, you can see some other photos of another guy, in naval uniform, that bears a family resemblance to this fellow. Brother perhaps?

Harry Angstrom: Thanks for the information! This does appear to be former Congressman Samuel Ellsworth Winslow, so we'll add that to the record when we update.
