This appears to be one of several débutante announcement photographs of Margaret Resler Warren of New York City, who was introduced to society on December 9, 1913, with a reception, dinner and dance. A daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Elliott Warren, Margaret was a descendant of Revolutionary War General Warren of Bunker Hill. She was a graduate of The Spence School. Her father was President of the Lincoln National Bank. [1] [2]

A different photograph of Miss Warren, by Campbell Studios, appeared in the October 19, 1913, New York Times, however the accompanying article seems to have been, perhaps, cut of débutante announcements. A variant of the above pose, by Mishkin Studios, is in the Bain Collection (shown below) of The Library of Congress, and will no doubt find its way to Flickr ;)
                                   

On January 22, 1921, Margaret Warren married Shannon Lord Meany (b.1892), the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward P. Meany (b.1854) of Alnwick Hall, Convent, New Jersey. He was a graduate of Princeton and served as a captain during the war. Their engagement was announced in October, 1920. [3] [4] [5] [6]

Margaret and Shannon Meany separated in 1939, and she was awarded a divorce in Reno in 1940. [7] [8]

Thanks for your research Pixel Wrangler. And thanks artolog, for putting the pieces together. We'll add a bit of the information about her to both records the next time we update.

NYT of October 19, 1913 select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=FB0E12FA385B1373... has a picture which looks to be the same young woman, presumably the debutante mentioned in another extract from the society pages the same day select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F50E12FA385B1373... as the second daughter of Mrs. Charles Elliot Warren. Major Charles Elliot Warren was president of Lincoln National Bank, according to The sun., October 05, 1913, FOURTH SECTION PICTORIAL MAGAZINE, Page 7, picture at top of right-hand column chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030272/1913-10-05/ed-...

announces the January 22, 1921 date for her wedding to Shannon Lord Meany. The photo is very similar, if not the same.

Amazing classic collation I like it

Thanks for your research swanq. We'll add some of the information to both records the next time we update.

The Pittsburgh Press - Aug 10, 1917 news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1144&dat=19170810&... has a piece by Margaret Mason (written for United Press) about the joys of canning. This could be the same woman.

Another photo of Margaret Warren is in The evening world., December 02, 1920, Wall Street Final Edition, Page 14 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030193/1920-12-02/ed-.... It's the same woman IMO.
