      Clarence Hungerford Mackay (April 17, 1874 – November 12, 1938) was an American financier, believed to inherit most of a $500 million estate in 1902. In 1926, his daughter Ellin married Irving Berlin against her father's wishes and he disinherited her.

      I'm wondering if this is Ellin (1903-1988), or his other daughter Katherine. This girl looks quite mature for a twelve-year-old.

      The family, elsewhere in the LOC uploads:

      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.
