Hisey's Pharmacy
Company Names, addresses, dates:
Hisey's Pharmacy, Shenandoah, VA (1919-1962) 1,2
Notes:
William Edward Hisey (1893-1962)3
and
Henry Clyde Hisey (1895-1965)4
were brothers who ran the Hisey's Pharmacy in Shenandoah VA,
starting in 1919.1
William passed away in 1962, and later that year, his wife and brother
sold the drugstore to Dr. C.E. & Mrs. Jean Bodell.2
There was also a Hisey druggist in Edinburg VA ca.1890s, but I haven't
found any relation between that druggist and William or Henry.
