Boone County Historical Society collection. Donated by members of the Easley family.

The Easley country store was a fixture in southern Boone county for one hundred years beginning in about 1890. Originally built by William Greene Easley, the store later was run by William's son, Hall, and beginning in about 1952 by William's grandson and wife, Raymond and Amy Easley. Pictured here is Hall Easley in front of the store at the time of the Missouri River flood of 1951.
