Summary

The June 1989 Beaver Beacon profiled Lawrence Malloy Jr. after his retirement from forty years of work in Chicago. He planned to sell his Chicago home and make Beaver Island his permanent residence while remodeling the family butcher shop in the harbor, built by his grandfather Anthony Malloy in 1890.

Evidence limits

This is a newspaper profile and statement of plans, not a completed move, building permit, or verified architectural history of the butcher shop.
