A Little History

In 1890, William Henry Harrison Clark and his three sons, Walter, Burt and Morris, started a lumber and coal yard with the store located at 215 South Main Street in Liberty, Indiana. Bill and Clare Richmond and Maurice and Carmen Miles formed a corporation and purchased the real estate and business known as W.H.H. Clark & Sons in 1948. The name of the business was changed to Miles-Richmond Inc.

In the 1960’s, Miles-Richmond Inc. purchased several acres of land adjacent to Liberty and developed the Wil-Mar housing subdivision in Union County. In order to have the room to offer one-stop service for the retail store operation, remodeling and new construction services, a new modern Home Center was constructed. The entire operation was then moved to its new building, and its present location, 221 South Main Street in Liberty.

2002 was another milestone year for Miles-Richmond Inc. Gary Finch and Don De La Croix, both employees of the company, formed their own corporation and purchased the business, maintaining the name of Miles-Richmond Inc.

Continuing in the tradition of excellence which had been established by its preceding owners, Miles-Richmond has continued to offer its customers the quality products and service they have come to expect.

All of our staff is dedicated to the continued success of Miles-Richmond with the support of the surrounding community.
