DeGeer General Store - Alva, OK (1927)...

Someone told me today that the DeGeer General Store might have been in the 600 block of Barnes Avenue about two doors west of the McGill Bros. Swimming pool. If there is anyone else out there that add some information concerning the DeGeer Grocery & General Store, don't be shy. Leave us a comment here or email Linda at EMAIL: mcwagner.lk@gmail.com. Thanks!

A couple of comments: I remember in the 50's the old Pribble Hotel still standing where the Public Library is today. This may have been the 630 1/2 Barnes address. Also I believe two doors east of the old Ritz theatre building (where the fire was) is a possibility for the location of De Geers grocery. Through the trees on the brick on the west side of the building if you look closely you can see the faint "Groceries" sign. I enjoy studying the history of the square
