Information

This commercial and residential structure built about 1870 was a millenary shop operated by Mrs. Emma Thomas Snively in the early 20th century where hats for ladies were made on the spot. Seasonally, Mrs. Snively journeyed to Baltimore’s Armstrong and Kater’s Wholesale House returning with treasures to delight the mothers and children of the village. This was the store where locals shopped for dolls and toys for their children at Christmas. Also stocked were infant’s clothing and needlework supplies. Later many grocery and general merchandise stores were located here operating into the 1950s.
