Grover Cleveland, who was a close friend of his. He succeeded George W.

Mackey, he invested in the Evansville and Crawfordsville Railroad.[1] He was also a director of the New-York Life Insurance Company and a trustee of the New-York Security and Trust Company.[4] In 1894, then President Cleveland appointed him Naval Officer of the Port of New York,[4] Baldwin replaced Theodore B. Willis, who had been appointed by President Benjamin Harrison.[5] He served in this role until his death in 1897.[1] Society lifeIn 1892, his son, daughter, and himself were included in Ward McAllister's "Four Hundred", purported to be an index of New York's best families, published in The New York Times.[6][7] He owned a cottage in Newport, known as the "Baldwin villa" which was located at the corner of Bellevue Avenue and Narragansett.[17] The cottage was rented to Gouverneur Kortright in 1895.[8] In 1896, he rented Mrs. A. M. King's Newport cottage on Ayrault Street for the season.[9] He hosted Donald M. Dickinson at the home in July 1896.[10] Baldwin was a member of the Manhattan Club, the Metropolitan Club, the Union Club, the Knickerbocker Club, the Democratic Club and Reform Clubs, the Southern Society, the Down Town Association, the South Side Sportsmen's Club, and the American Geographical Society.[1][11] He was also a governor of the Newport Casino and member of the Westchester Country Club.[4] Personal lifeBaldwin was married to Sarah "Sallie" Roman (1843–1873).[12][13] She was the daughter, and sole heir, of James Dixon Roman (1809–1867), a U.S. Representative who was president and part owner of Old Hagerstown Bank.[14] Together, Baldwin and Sallie were the parents of four children:[12]
