Text:                               This building was built crooked and is evidenced

by the correction on the laying up of the brick on

the upper portion of the left wall.  Fire destroyed

the original building, probably in 1856.  The store

was re-built by Joe W. Jackson and housed his grocery business in the 1880’s part and operated a meat market and grocery store through the latter of the 20th century and was still in business during World War II.
