Wolfsons Celebrate Anniversary of Firm
Wolfsons mark seven years since the Sault Wolfson Dry Goods Company began in May 1883.

The San Antonio store traces its origins to 1868, moving to Commerce and Atama streets by 1910 with remodels through 1914. Heavy hail and wind followed an electrical storm in San Angelo, causing concern for local crops and structures.
