Another Bain/LOC photo of Sayre, with his name spelled correctly: Yet another photo of Sayre, taken at the time of the announcement of his engagement to Jessie Woodrow Wilson: And another: And one more:

Wystan: Thanks for spotting the incorrect spelling. We'll add the correct name next time we update this record.

The man is probably Francis B. Sayre (Wikipedia), whom she married in 1913. There's a fragment of his name backwards at the bottom of his picture. See also Williams College

For heaven's sake, LOC -- Two Question Marks! Y'all call yourself the Library of Congress, and you don't know that President Woodrow Wilson's elder daughter was named Jessie Woodrow?? And if she had been born male, she would have been Woodrow Wilson, Jr. She and Francis Bowes Sayre were wed on November 25, 1913. A couple of Bain/LOC photos of Sayre were posted here a week or two ago: And another shot of Sayre was posted by LOC on April 30, 2010:

That was done in Photoshop 0.3?

Logista and Wystan: Thanks identifying Sayre. We'll include it next time we update the source data.

Francis Bowes Sayre, married to Jessie Wilson, the president's daughter, in 1913.

Sayre was born in 1885, two years before his bride, Jessie Woodrow Wilson, the President's daughter. He was 28 when they were wed, on November 25, 1913. They had two sons and a daughter, all now deceased. She died in 1933; he lived on until 1972. His Wikipedia page (not yet complete) shows yet another LOC photo of him at this desk, facing the other way, but that photo has not yet been posted on Flickr: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_B._Sayre But this photo, nearly identical, has been posted:

Thank you pennylrichardsca and Wystan for the addition information about Sayre and for linking these two images.

Another Bain/LOC photo of Sayre, his last name misspelled by both Bain and LOC, was posted on Flickr on April 30, 2010: And this one was posted in May: Yet another was posted in July:
