Retail Sales Associate – Dorset, VT
About the Company
HN Williams Store began in 1840 by William Williams as a Harness Shop in Dorset Vermont. William Williams son George got involved as the name changed to William Williams and Son. As the demand for leather goods diminished with the onset of the automobile, George’s son Herbert Norton (HN) Williams took over and added general merchandise to meet the needs. HN Williams Store was run for 40 years by Herbert’s daughter Ada Rumney and then, for an additional 30 years, by Herbert’s Granddaughter Ruth and husband Dennis Brownlee. Today, HN Williams is run by HN’s great grandson’s Billy Brownlee and Gerritt Brownlee.
