Originally located down the street near the railroad tracks in Waresboro, this is now on the property of Joe Spence. It was an early general store/mercantile.

In the early 60’s My parents Mac and Edith Swain ran this general store. My parents later moved to the 2 gas pump general store on Waresboro curve. I think both were names Waresboro Grocery in the 60’s to early 70’s.
Mother ran the store full time while Dad was the local PET Milk milkman.
I love this ole store. Would like to have this in my yard. I so enjoy your work, Brian. Thanks!!
