Description: Photograph, from left to right, of Wayne W. West, Nella A. West and Charles Rucher sitting on the front porch steps of the West family's residence on South Griffin Avenue. The trio sits together, left-of-center. Wayne W. West sits leftmost and in partial view. He sits atop the stair rail along the left edge, facing right, and looks towards Nella A. West. Nella A. West sits at center on the steps. She sorts flowers on her lap and looks down at her task. To the right of her, Charles Rucher sits a step lower; he smiles for the camera. The steps extend up behind Nella and Charles to the front porch. Behind Charles, a door stands and behind Nella sits a decorative window. The porch appears to wrap around the left side of the house.
