Today, Wheeling has Kroger and a Riesbeck’s Food Market, Sav-A-Lot, and a few convenient Convenience Stores where one buys groceries.  Maybe today, that is enough stores to fill the need, but it wasn’t always so.  A timely trend may be that you make your order from one of these stores and it will be delivered to your home.  In 1920 into 1960, the Jewell Tea Co. Serviced the Homemaker going door to door.  They had a warehouse and store at 401 Main Street in 1920. It would seem there was a grocery store on every corner and in the middle of the block and then some.  There are 345 Grocery Stores listed in Wheeling from 1820 to 1920. Check the name and addresses, did one of your ancestors have a grocery, or was your house at one time a grocery store?

Wheeling was a frontier community, during it’s early years, it had No stores.  The Reverend and Dr. Joseph Doddridge 1769-1826 who lived in that time best explains one’s existence on ‘The Frontier’.  Doddridge experienced the life and he wrote about it in “Notes, on the Settlement and Indian Wars, of the Western Parts of Virginia and Pennsylvania From 1763-1783 Inclusive”.  Published in 1824.  “What early settlers had, they grew in the soil, trapped or shot, or it was sewn or made at home, everything else was a luxury.  Every family had a little garden for vegetables and a larger enclosed garden, which they called a ‘truck patch’ where they would raise corn, pumpkins, squashes, beans and potatoes.  These were harvested and cooked with pork, venison or bear meat and the meat of the plentiful wild turkeys.  They ate ‘hog and hominy’; Johnnycake and corn pone were the only forms of bread.  They had milk and corn-mush; when milk was scarce, the hominy and mush was served with sweetened water, molasses, bear’s oil or the gravy of fried meat.  The table was set with a few pewter dishes, plates and spoons; but mostly of wooden bowls, trenchers and noggins.” Wheeling’s first historically noted grocery store is written of in 1815.  On Main Street, Mr. Thomas Johnston operates a grocery store.  As to meat, noted in the same year is Henry Sockman’s butcher shop and slaughterhouse.
