Some more information about The Columbia Bakery

See also: History shared about Moore's Pool Room building | Photo: ARPA funds at work in the City of Columbia

By JIM

At the end of October 1921, the Adair County News reported that "Wilson & Hood have purchased the Frank Shepherd stock of goods, located in the North corner of the square. Wilson & Hood will remove the Shepherd stock to the Butler [i.e., west] corner where they conduct a general store."

A year and a half later (May 1923) came word that "Mr. Albin Murray and Mr. Geo. O. Barnes have purchased the Columbia Bakery and will continue the business at the same place. The bakery will be cut off from Wilson's store by a petition (sic). Mr. Barnes is an experienced baker."
