Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Thoroughbred Horse Racing, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Whitney

Wikipedia reports:
"He married Gertrude Vanderbilt, a member of the wealthy Vanderbilt family with whom he had three children: Flora Payne Whitney (1897), Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney (1899), and Barbara Whitney (1903).[1]

Cynthia Wenslow and Harry Angstrom: Thanks for the information. We'll add the full name of Mr. Whitney to the record and may also speculate that the three children shown in the center are the three named in his Wikipedia article. Thank you!

Frederick Vanderbilt's steam yacht, "The Warrior," struck a rock off Cape Augusta on the east coast of Colombia, but the crew was uninjured and the yacht was not leaking. It had been pulled into safer waters, according to a short news item several weeks later, in the New York Times, February 24, 1914: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9402E0D91730E7...

Thanks Wystan, for the link to the article. I don't know if we can nail down the date for this photo, but we can certainly do better with a caption title. We'll make the changes next time we update the record.
