| Biography/History | Schock Hardware was begun by the Schock brothers, Emmanuel and Gottlieb in 1926. Gottlieb bought his brother out in 1937, and continued running the business until his death in 1955. During 1955, a fire also destroyed the two buildings that housed the hardware store. The store was rebuilt in 1956 by new owner Floyd Schock. |
