About this Article

Indiana history buff Nelson Price relaxes in the sunny former master bedroom's sitting room of Obama's forefathers, looking out on the acres of land that once belonged to them. The author of Indiana history books and a local radio host, Price has followed the story of this house closely since he first invited the owner, Shawn Christopher Clements, to speak on his show.
