DENNIS ANDERSON OF MAQUOKETA (A FORMER MANAGER OF THE WAL MART
STORE HERE) RECENTLY MOVED HIS STORE FROM NORTH JONES IN MAQUOKETA TO
A VACANT BUILDING IN THE LITTLE JACKSON COUNTY TOWN OF CANTON, LOCATED
ALONG THE MAQUOKETA RIVER.     HE BOUGHT THE BUILDING AND HAS DONE
EXTENSIVE RENOVATIONS ALREADY INSIDE AND ON THE GROUNDS AND MORE ARE
PLANNED.     I'M SURE CANTON AREA RESIDENTS ARE,  AND SHOULD BE , PROUD OF THEIR NEW CONVENIENCE STORE, VIDEO RENTALS, AND CANOE RENTALS.
IN THIS PHOTO, TWO EMPLOYEES.   ON THE LEFT IS DENNIS' DAUGHTER.
THIS FORMER RESTAUANT BUILDING AND TAVERN WILL NOW BRING NEW LIFE TO
CANTON, WHICH IN THE VERY EARLY DAYS OF JACKSON COUNTY, BEFORE THE
RAILROAD CAME, WAS THE BIGGEST CITY IN JACKSON COUNTY.   CLICK-ON THE
PHOTO TO ENLARGE IT.
