Mooney & King





A.W. Mooney & G.L. King, two Medicine Hat railroad men formed a partnership and came to investigate what was to become Biggar on March 20, 1908. Pleased with what they saw, they immediately erected a building and installed a comprehensive stock of hardware. By the summer of 1909 ,they had added furniture and harness to their lines and had expanded the business to include a tinsmithing department.
