Dey Brothers and Sibley's Merge in Syracuse History
The Dey brothers helped launch Dey Brothers in Elmira in 1877 and built a Syracuse store in 1894 across from Sibley’s, later merging with May Department Stores. Family lore notes Donald and Robert Dey as key leaders, their lives tied to local public and business circles, and their shift toward a single price and quality focus.
