History of the Lake Huron Shore
H. R. Page & Co., - 1883

        [274]
        
           A. NOYES & Bro.
           
           This firm is composed of A. NOYES and a step-brother, JOHN
         WOOD. The business was established by MR. NOYES, a native of
         Oakland County, Mich. He came to Harrisville in 1865, and the
         following year opened a store in a small building located where
         the St. Lawrence House now stands. He continued in business
         alone until the Fall of 1872, when MR. WOOD, who is also a 
         native of Oakland County, arrived, and went into business
         with MR. NOYES, the firm name being A. NOYES & Bro. In 1878
         they erected the building now occupied with their business.
         In the Summer of 1882 they built a shingle-mill about five
         miles from the village, which they are operating. They also
         have a farm and mill and MR. NOYES to the store. MR. NOYES
         belonged to the regular army from 1858 to 1863. He has a wife
         and three children. Both gentlemen are active business men
         and have an excellent reputation as a business firm.
