1877 - This year saw the founding of the firm which now bears the name of G. Wesley Coburn. At that time James Coburn, father of G. Wesley Coburn, acquired the store from its former owners. The building had been erected and a business in groceries, dry good and general supplies, had been carried on by its founder, John Piercy, for a number of years before Mr Coburn took control. Frequent changes in ownership occurred with Mr Coburn taking over in 1877. In 1890 he passed the establishment over to his son, G. Wesley Coburn, and since that date the firm has been under one management. G. Wesley Coburn and Sons carry on an extensive trade in farm and household supplies. One of its most important lines of good carried is the Murphy Company, Montreal, products, which include a complete assortment of house paint, varnishes, Narvo enamels and floor enamels.
