Grandfather Strom (1890-1945) in El Paso, Texas. Uncle Norman was born in this house on 3119 Memphis St. in 1925. Also pictured is Chris Erik and younger sibling Henrik Walter (foreground). A hand written caption on the original photograph says: First Sunday in New Home.

The house still stands.

100 years have elapsed. The green grass has withered. Plaster has been added here and there and the porch roof has been altered. An aesthetic enhancement? or perhaps the original design did not have enough slope and the structure was susceptible to water intrusion.

1,207 sq ft and 1 bath, Zillow proclaims “Built in 1930” but we know something they don’t know 😉
