He was the son of Augustus Jay (1850–1919)[2] and Emily Astor (née Kane) Jay (1854–1932).[3] His younger brother was DeLancey Kane Jay (1881–1941).[4][4] His paternal grandparents were Josephine (née Pearson) Jay and Peter Augustus Jay, himself the son of Peter Augustus Jay, a member of the New York State Assembly and Recorder of New York City, and grandson of John Jay, Founding Father and first United States Chief Justice.[5] His maternal grandparents were DeLancey Kane and Louisa Dorothea (née Langdon) Kane.[6] His maternal uncles included DeLancey Astor Kane, Commodore S. Nicholson Kane, and Rough Rider Woodbury Kane, all cousins of John Jacob Astor IV.[4] In 1880, Jay was painted by John Singer Sargent.[7] Jay studied at Eton College in England and graduated from Harvard University with an A.B. in 1900.[8] CareerIn 1902, he began a career with the U.S. Foreign Service as the third secretary of the American embassy in Paris followed by service in Constantinople as second secretary.[11] He was later promoted to secretary and when the legation was changed to an embassy, he continued as secretary until June 1907 when he became Chargé d'Affaires in Tokyo on July 7, 1908 where he received full powers to "exchange ratifications for the protection of inventions, designs trademarks and copyrights."[11] He served in Japan until December 21, 1909 when he was appointed by President William Howard Taft as Consul General to Egypt in Cairo. He presented his credentials on November 28, 1910 and left his post on October 8, 1913.[1] On May 4, 1920, Jay was appointed U.S. Minister to El Salvador by President Woodrow Wilson, serving from February 10, 1921 until April 28, 1921.[1] After being appointed on April 18, 1921 by President Warren G. Harding, he served from June 30, 1921 to May 9, 1925 as U.S. Minister to Romania, where he assisted in negotiating that country's repayment terms of $42,000,0000 for wartime and post World War I development loans.[9] On March 18, 1925, he was appointed U.S. Ambassador to Argentina by President Calvin Coolidge.[1] He presented his credentials on September 24, 1925 and was present in May 16, 1926 when a bomb exploded at the door to the US embassy, an action that might have been a protest of the guilty verdicts in the Sacco and Vanzetti trials.[9] While serving in Buenos Aires, his health began to fail and he resigned his post on December 30, 1926, afterwards living in retirement in Washington, D.C..[9] In 1928, he was appointed the American member of the Permanent International Commission established under the treaty between the United States and Spain on September 15, 1914.[11] Personal lifeOn March 16, 1909, Jay was married to Susan Alexander McCook (1879–1977).[10] She was the daughter of Civil War officer and prominent attorney John James McCook (1845–1911) and granddaughter of Daniel McCook of the "Fighting McCooks".
