This modified English cottage home was built in 1924 by G. A. Nichols for Mr. Edward H. Miller.

Nichols sold the home to Mr. and Mrs. Edward J Miller. He was president of the Miller-Jackson Company, a large wholesale firm that specialized in woodenware and tinware and later Zenith electronics. Four years after buying the house on 15th, the Millers built a large five-story warehouse in the industrial district now known as Bricktown.

The Millers moved out in 1946. Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Herz lived in the home from 1946 to 1955 and added a wraparound porch to the front. Mr. and Mrs. Everett Cooke lived in the home from 1955 to 1966. They gutted the kitchen, converted the basement to a recreation room, enclosed the second floor sleeping porch, and moved one bathroom to the back of the house.

In 1966 the Cookes sold the house to Nancy and Aubrey Kerr. Aubrey was born January 13, 1939, in Ada, Oklahoma. A nephew of Senator Robert S Kerr, he was an attorney and oilman. Nancy Denton was from Texas. The Kerrs had three children, Shelley, Mike, and Carolyn.

After moving into the house, they enclosed the porte-cochere, gutted the kitchen and added a swimming pool and sunroom. In 1979, when the added front porch was damaged, they removed it, patched holes, and painted the exterior brick. In the 1990s the Kerrs replaced the sunroom with a large family room. Their house was also known for its elevator in the northeast corner of the dining room. Nancy and Aubrey both served on Historical Preservation, Inc. and were instrumental in the leadership of the neighborhood. They featured their home on the 1974 Home Tour. The Kerrs spent their summers on Pelican Lake near Nisswa, Minnesota where Aubrey had gone every summer since birth. Aubrey died November 7, 2019, at age 80.
