I have this info about a cleaning/laundry service in this area in
December of 1936. My great granduncle's Ignatius KERR's wife worked
there after his untimely death in 1932:

Name: Martha Frances KERR
Address: 307 Valencia Street, San Francisco, CA
Employer: Home Laundry Co., 3338-17th Street, San Francisco, CA
