History Biographical
Hoyt's Hardware (1927-1987) was incorporated October 3, 1927. The first directors were Berton Beecher Hoyt, Robert Clark Black, and William Hartley Manley. The firm began as a joint stock company with capital of $40,000. Gordon L. Black, father of the donor, purchased control of the company in 1941-42. In 1975, Mr. Black sold Hoyt's Hardware to Emil Fritzler, who close the hardware portion of the business upon his retirement in the spring of 1987.
