Although the photo only says "Bailey" and the Wilkies lived at two different houses on the street, based on the childrens' ages and the layout of the house in the photo compared to the modern appearance of the same houses, this appears to be their house at 1759 Bailey, before they moved one block north to 1786 Bailey.

Based on other available records, she was actually living at 540 Ashland Ave at the time.

Although the census page lists Edith's address as 525 Ashland, this is an error and she actually lived at 540.
