The title names the family of Josephus Daniels, the North Carolina newspaper editor who served as Secretary of the Navy under Woodrow Wilson, though the Bain News Service recorded that identification without verifying it, so the sitters remain uncertain. The Bain agency supplied photographs of public figures and current events to newspapers beginning in the early 1900s, and its glass negatives document many posed portraits from Washington during the years Daniels held office. No date is recorded, so the year of the sitting is unknown, and the title is best read as a starting point rather than settled fact.
