Decatur Public Library-Illinois

For our Warrensburg friends, this picture shows the inside of Schroeder's Hardware store (date unknown). According to the H&R 1983 auction sale ad, the store was established in 1896 and in 1905 it moved to the present location. The Schroeders were very active in the community and their father built the first house in Warrensburg, according to "Past and Present of the City of Decatur and Macon County" (1903).
