Henderson's Hardware, Main Street, Liverpool, Nova Scotia
In November 1914, the J. Snow and Henderson store opened to the public. Just two months later, in February 1915, new ownership changed the name to Henderson and Inness, a name which remained until 1963. After 1963, it was known as Henderson's Hardware. Gordon Henderson operated the store for many years and Ed Schrader was employed there for many years. Hugh Mosher was manager of the store in it's final years and I remember Dot Lohnes working there when I was just a kid and had gone in to buy nails. In December 1978, Henderson's Hardware closed it's doors and the adjoining Scotia Bank began renovations to enlarge their existing bank into the Henderson's Hardware section. In the early 1990's Scotia Bank gave the bank a major face lift completely renovating the exterior. Looking at the outside of the bank today, you would never know the hardware store ever existed.

In 1973 Henderson's Hardware was purchased from Leo Henderson by Keith Wyer, Ted Emeneau, Arthur Rodart and myself as a junior partner. Very early during our ownership we became a member of the Home Hardware buying group. With the sale of the main street building to the Bank of Nova Scotia in 1977, I bought the warehouse building on Jubilee St, and opened Liverpool Paint and Paper in late 1977.
