Honaker Pharmacy
Company Names, addresses, dates:
Honaker Pharmacy, Honaker VA (ca.1910-1982)1,2
Notes:
The earliest reference I could find to the Honaker Pharmacy was an entry in
the 1910 edition of the Era Druggists, a publication which lists drug stores
in the USA.1
I don't know who started the pharmacy. The earliest reference I could find
to a proprietor was for
James G. Albert (1899-1986), who operated the pharmacy for 42 years
between 1925 and 1967.3
In later years, it was operated by
Charles C. Bundy (1939-1996),
who operated the pharmacy for 16 years. 4
The last newspaper ad I could find for the pharmacy was in 1982, and a
newspaper article later that year mentioned that someone named Bob Taylor
bought out Mr. Bundy.2
