Pucket & Huddle


Company Names, addresses, dates:
  Puckett & Huddle, Ivanhoe VA

Notes:
Dr. John Henry Puckett (1862-1925) was a Mason. That's probably why the embossed bottle below has a compass & square - a symbol for Masons. Puckett entered the drug business at age 17 in Marion VA with Dr. Pendleton in 1879. He also worked in the drug store business in North Carolina, Richmond VA, and Petersburg VA before starting a drugstore in Ivanhoe in 1890.1

I can't find any information about his partner named Huddle.
