Thanks Wystan, LucyGraceBarber, & Richard Arthur Norton, we'll update the records with their full name. Since he was only governor until the beginning of 1913, I'll ask to adjust the date range also.

Probably a rear view. But where was this building?

Wystan: This is Woodrow Wilson's summer home in Sea Girt, New Jersey. There is a LC image with Wilson standing on the porch steps at hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/cph.3b07163.

It was the Governors summer Residence for New Jersey. Demolished in 1971.

This can't be 1970, surely.

Thanks Renira1 - it surely was not - 1870 is correct.
