J. A. Seybold was responsible for the construction of the buildings at 720/722 Main Street in 1883. Seybold operated a hardware store here for only a short time. The buildings were next used by W. A. Fuller and his "Yankee" Fuller Hardware Store until 1888. The buildings have been owned by the Trefz family for most of their existence. The Trefz Tin Shop operated here until 1925. From the late 1920's until the 1990's, Trefz Plumbing occupied the buildings.
