What's Your Name

What I know:

This adorable young man was found in the collection of Joyce Mariencheck Klinck. Although her tin button box of old photos isn't organized by Mariencheck / Ferrer, we're pretty sure this is from her mother, Dell Ferrer's side of the family since most of the photographs that are this old once belonged to Agnes Grace Ferrer.

The only clue we have to go on is the "Brother" inscription half-revealed at the bottom. Between Joyce's knowledge of her grandmother's handwriting and comparisons to other hand-written notes, we believe this inscription was written by Agnes herself. That means this could be Edwin Booth Grace (born 1891), William Raymond Grace (born 1897), John Emmet Grace (born 1898), or George Patrick Grace (born 1900).

Do you know who this is?
