Holwager Grocery - 117 West Main Street

Description: Louis Holwager started a grocery here around the turn of the century. In about 1909 his son, Oliver, took over the business and continued until his death in 1944. The Holwager family remained in the building for several years as a residence. In the 1960s it passed from the Holwager family and was for a time a private residence. In the 1970s Wycoff Pottery opened in the building and in the 1980s it was the Greenhills Pottery Shop. It is now a private residence.
