Theodore Roosevelt Jr Weds Eleanor Alexander in New York
The June 20 Fifth Avenue Presbyterian ceremony united Theodore Roosevelt Jr and Eleanor Butler Alexander in a high profile wedding. Col Roosevelt attended with other relatives and friends, and the couple planned a Sagamore Hill honeymoon before sending Teddy Jr to prep and Harvard. Roosevelt, Jr, guided by a quiet nature, pursued a business career after college, later joining a Connecticut carpet firm to learn the trade while pursuing a restrained public image. The engagement, announced last winter, received rapid approval from Col Roosevelt.
