Morrison's Pharmacy


Company Names, addresses, dates:
   Morrison's Pharmacy, Round Hill VA

Notes:
 Horace Truxton Morrison (1868-1906)1 was a druggist in Round Hill VA2.
I don't know the exact years of operation of Morrison's Pharmacy, but a 18-Jan-1900 newspaper mention said that Horace was in Richmond, resuming his studies in pharmacy3, so he likely opened his drugstore sometime after that.
His pharmacy in Round Hill shows up in Virginia Pharmacy directories in 1906-1911, but not 1912, so his pharmacy likely ceased in 19114.
He passed away in 1906, and I was unable to determine who took over his business between then and 1911 - maybe one of his siblings. J. T. Wallace is listed as a druggist in Round Hill starting in 1912, so maybe he took over Morrison's pharmacy.
