This day marks the joyous union of John Coolidge and Florence Trumbull in marriage, September 23, 1929. Former President and Mrs. Coolidge stand beside the shy, red-headed Florence, whom Grace considered the “nicest daughter a son ever presented to his mother” or as Calvin affectionately dubbed her, “Miss Connecticut.” Beside John stands Connecticut Governor John and Maude Trumbull.

When asked whether he would disclose what gift he had bestowed upon the young couple, Coolidge answered without missing a beat, “No, I do not choose to say.”
