Huning's Store and Civil War Era Ownership in St Charles
The piece traces Huning's Dry Goods Store in St Charles from its 1850s start in the 10H block of South Main Street through partnerships with A W Windhorst, Civil War service, and later relocations. It notes destruction in a February 1876 cyclone, subsequent store moves to North Main Street, and ads in 1857 1866 1897 sources detailing products and departments. It ends with Huning's later status as a company with partners Fred Wilke and Herman Sandfort and an expansion to 268 North Main Street with Shopper's Haven today.
