Homestead Pharmacy


Company Names, addresses, dates:
   Homestead Pharmacy, Hot Springs VA

Notes:
 The earliest newspaper reference I found to the Homestead Pharmacy in Hot Springs VA was from 19061.
A 1917 article said that E. F. Carpenter was persuing a license to sell alcohol at the Homestead Pharmacy, which was located in the Homestead Hotel.2

In 1922, Charles W. Johnson was made manager of the pharmacy.3
And in 1936, he left his position as manager.4

I can't find any indication that the pharmacy lasted beyond that date.
