In 1874, James C. Jacobs sold his well-established hardware store business and the Iron Block Building to Col. Samuel Keefer, of New York city, New York. In 1876, Keefer transferred the hardware store business to William A. Harding and Willard H. Jones, also of New York and they moved to Wooster, Ohio to operate the business.[1]
