Florys Amoco Station Opens and Changes Hands in Elkton
The AMOCO station at Stuart Avenue and Spotswood Trail was built in 1951 by Elkton native Danny Flory. It operated briefly before passing to Bob Simmons as Bob Simmons Amoco, then changed again in late 1954 when Graves Ford owner Mr Graves took over Elkton Service Station and renamed it Graves Amoco Service. A Dec 17 1954 grand opening is pictured, with a 1955 DeSoto lineup advertised by Lough Motor in the background.

Elkton native Lester B. Babe McGuire became the fourth owner turning the station into Babe's Amoco. Elkton High School students refueled at 39 cents a gallon with free oil checks and windshields washed. Babe's Amoco lasted nearly two decades until 1972 before Ronnie Meadows ran Meadow's Auto Service from 1973. The site was later razed for a BB&T Bank.
