P.T. Little's store at Hancock; several men standing outside store with a horse and wagon

The canal reached the little town of fewer than 400 residents, Hancock, in April of 1839. At the arrival of the canal mills, warehouses and stores opened in hopes of taking advantage of the new trade. P.T. Little’s store would have done business in the local area along with canal trade.
