My great, great grandfather, Dr. Jeduthan Green Baldwin (1813-1900), was the first medical man to live in Lewiston, Winona County, Minnesota and operated the first pharmacy in Lewiston. My cousin, Carol M. Baldwin, sent this photo to me based upon her travels to Minnesota. Her comments follow:
Jeduthan's Drug Store: I took this photo around 1989, shortly before leaving for Asia. Alice Yaekel, Bud's widow, showed me the building and told me that it had originally been used by Jeduthan as a drug store. It was adjacent to Yaekel's hardware store. I was told that this building was purchased by a Lewiston resident who was attempting to restore some of the old historic buildings. I do not know where this building currently resides, or who bought it.
