Narrative
From Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia:
James Roosevelt "Rosy" Roosevelt (April 27, 1854 – May 7, 1927) was an American heir, diplomat and the older half-brother of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR).
James Roosevelt Roosevelt was born on April 27, 1854.[1] He was the son of James Roosevelt I (1828–1900) and his first wife, Rebecca Brien Howland (1831–1876), who were second cousins. He was described as "an aimless if charming member of New York society's sporting set."[2] When his father died in 1900, the estate was split between Rosy and FDR.
Roosevelt served as Secretary of the United States Legation in Vienna and as Secretary of the Embassy in London.
