904 Mississippi Avenue NW

904 Mississippi Avenue

This house was built  in 1900. The neighborhood got a little attention in the fall of 1912 when two three-year old boys were lost for several hours and caused their parents some worry. The boys were Julius Venne, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Venne, 904 Mississippi avenue, and Ralph Quenneville, son of Mr. and Mrs. Telesphore Quenneville, 1005 Mississippi avenue. They were found late in the afternoon wandering down the Great Northern yards. (Sept 14, 1912)

This was the home of Sigvard M. Koefod and his family in the late 1920s and into the 1940s. Mr. Koefod was Judge of the Probate Court.

Mrs. Dorothy Schauls lived here from at least 1970 – 1982.
