Description
Full title:Harry Toshinaga Taketa, Tosh to his friends; his family and father, Kumataro, were among the first evacuees to return to San Jose. They arrived from Omaha where they had relocated, early in February. The Taketas found their apartment--store and residence which had been condemned during their absence--in bad shape. But they moved in and started repairs without delay. Now they are converting their property at 211 Jackson Street, San Jose, into an apartment house with offices for a doctor, another for a dentist and a third for a beautician. The family consists of Harry, his wife, Miyeko, Grayson 10, Deanna 6, and his father, Kumataro. Harry is working in a local factory making artificial hands and Mrs. Taketa is employed in the Levi-Strauss factory in San Jose. Kumataro, he admits, is little more than a nursemaid. Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru San Jose, California.
