Inscription. The first frame building was built in 1868 as a home for boots and shoes. It was a shoe repair shop until 1916. In 1920 Jones Lumber Co. was moved to this location after the original building was razed. Later it was a shoe repair and store until 1941 when it became a carpenter shop. The V.F.W. held meetings here until 1945. At that time it was purchased for a shoe store. Current owner Thomas Johnson has had his shoe shop here since 1948. It is the only wood frame business building in Pleasant Hill today.
