Frank Gould, wife and Ethel Kelly (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • sweetpea0011 said:
    Frank Gould was a philanthropist and the son of financier Jay Gould. Frank Jay was the owner of a string of French Riviera casinos and hotels, which he leased to a French syndicate. On December 1, 1901 he married Ethel Kelly and had two children. They divorced in 1908. The Wichita Daily Times, Wichita Falls, Texas, wrote: "Frank Jay Gould and his wife who was Ethel Kelly have separated and it is said Mrs. Gould has brought action looking for a legal separation. Jealousy on the part of Mr. Gould, due, it is said, to the homage paid Mrs. Gould, who is a beautiful woman, by other men." I really like this picture because the guys in that time all dressed similarly; None of the guys stand out, yet the women stand out because of their nice furs.

Frank Gould's children (LOC)

    Looks like a drawing to me.

    Looks like they drew on a photograph to emphasize/sharpen the shapes--you see that a lot in this collection.
  • bfrank2 said:
    Why would he want to capture the sad faces of his children? The little girls do not seem to be living a happy life. I feel that he should have dressed them differently to capture their unique identities.

    Yikes! Unfortunately they remind me of the twins in Kubrick's "The Shining". is.gd/ayf0
  • Jim Rees said:
    The children's names are Helen and Dorothy. See another photo and find out why they are so sad in the comments here: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2449479844/ Their parents divorced and re-married, several times, and the kids ended up living with an aunt.

    Most likely Frank Jay Gould (1877-1956), youngest son of financier Jay Gould. Wikipedia article. Here's another Bain photo of Frank Gould, accompanied by his wife.

    Whyaduck: Thanks for the additional information on this image and the other Bain photo of Frank Gould. We'll update the source data and reload the description.

    It is good to see one of my articles in Wikipedia being read. I started that article on July 5, 2005. en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Frank_Jay_Gould&ac...
