Our grandparents' house (Mr. & Mrs. E.V. Nelson) located at 14th & M st. (1405 S. M St.)
Also, E.V. Nelson and his daughter Katherine Nelson are in another photo. Erna Nelson is also in a photo.

Memories: Their house was next door to a church (on the corner of 14th & M ). We visited often, and my older sisters remember going to K Street often to shop. My grandparents emigrated from Sweden in the early 1900s.
