from The Library of Congress

Richard Norton said:
Eleonora Randolph Sears (28 September 1881, Boston – 16 March, 1968 Palm Beach) was an American tennis player of the interwar period. In addition, she was a champion squash player, and prominent in other sports; she's considered one of the leading all-round women athletes of the first had of the 20th century. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleonora_Sears

I've found the event and location for this set of three photos. From the 6/27/15 New York Herald: "Miss Kathryn N. Steele and Mr. F. S. von Stade Married Before Brilliant Throng in Country." The article mentions Mackay and daughter Katherine as in attendance, as well as Eleonora Sears.

The wedding took place at the Church of the Advent, in Westbury, Long Island. The church still stands and looks the same today.

Jefferson Statue, St. Louis, Mo. (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

Joe said:
This statue of Thomas Jefferson by Austrian-born sculptor Karl Bitter (1867-1915) was unveiled on April 30, 1913. It is located in the Jefferson Memorial Building, home of the Missouri History Museum, 5700 Lindell Boulevard, St. Louis. The museum is on the site of the main entrance to the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition, aka St. Louis World's Fair, and its construction was financed primarily by the proceeds of the fair. The fairgrounds are now the site of Forest Park. The photo might have been taken at the time of the statue's unveiling, but might also have been published in newspapers two years later when, on April 10, 1915, sculptor Karl Bitter died of injuries received the previous night, when he had been struck by an automobile on Broadway in New York City after leaving the Metropolitan Opera House.

Arguably, the most intelligent President ever!

Monticello, home of Thomas Jefferson, Charlottesville, Va. (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

shbranch13 said:
Monticello is well over two centuries old, and it is actually on the reverse side of the 5 cent piece, which is the American nickel. I did not know that information before I visited Charlottesville a couple of years ago. I never knew what that building was on the back side of a nickel until I went to Monticello. It is such a beautiful and truly American home that was designed on the classical style of Palladian architecture. Also, the house is based upon Jefferson's own design, and it means "little mountain" in Italian.

It's also one of the few, if only, sites in the US on the UN World Historical Site list.
