There were several --for the time period--large hardware outlets in Edmonton. They included Carter's Hardware, Clegg-Case Hardware and Sporting Goods, G R William's, Uncle Ben's,WW Sales/Arcade, Welsh's Saddlery, and the wholesale outlets located in the Revlon Building and Marshal-Wells which were, by far, Edmonton's largest. Both operations sold to local farmers, so, they were not strictly wholesale.
This blog is dedicated in tribute to our ancestors and future heirs. In many instances, it was our parents, grandparents, great-grand parents, great-great-grandparents who had the vision to build Canada and keep it Canadian. I have great respect for heritage and tradition. Were it not for our ancestral heritage, we would not exist. Our heirs enable us to live on into the future. I do believe however, that it is time we all accept the fact that born in Canada, we are all equally Canadian.
