Harris, Henry

 

Henry (Hank) Harris was the owner of the Standard Oil Station in Hannaford.  Hank purchased the station from Art Johnson.  Before Hank purchased the station, he was a bulk agent for the same company, using a team of horses to haul gas to various places until the gasoline trucks took over the horsepower.

Hank came to Hannaford in 1916.  He was an outstanding man both in personality, business and size.  Hank died in April 1975.
