Dr. Charles B. Turner
Company Names, addresses, dates:
Dr. Charles B. Turner, Snickersville VA
Notes:
Charles B. Turner was born Jan 18, 1858 and died Nov 18, 19141.
He lived in Clayton Hall (which is shown in a photograph below), and his
office was across the street2.
The Washington and Old Dominion railroad was extended to Snickersville in 1900.
To market the area as a mountain resort, the station there was named "Bluemont
Station". Later that year, the town name was changed from Snickersville to
Bluemont3.
I've heard that a version of the bottle below exists with the name "Bluemont"
instead of "Snickersville", but I've never seen one.
