A glass negative titled for O.G. Jennings and his wife is the only detail the record gives about its subject, and that title comes from caption information the Bain News Service wrote on the negatives or caption cards, which has not been independently verified. Bain News Service was a New York picture agency that supplied news photographs to newspapers in the early twentieth century, and its negatives cover a wide range of people, places, and events of that period. Studio-style portraits from the agency's files were sometimes made for publication, so the pose and setting may suggest how the couple wished to be seen. Because no date is recorded, researchers should treat the names and context as starting points for further verification.
