R.A. Elder's Livery Barn

N.W. Corner of Intersection of 49th and Main (Block II Lot 1), Millet, Alberta, Canada

21

The Millet Livery Barn was built by Robert A. Elder in 1910. It was situated on the northwest corner of the intersection of 49th Avenue and 50th Street (Main Street), Block 2, Lot 1. There were living quarters above the barn. Robert Elder's son, Staunton, was born there, as was Tom Elder's son, Warren, in 1915. Farmers, and travellers going through Millet, many times would leave their horses in the livery barn if they were going to be in the village for any length of time. The owner of the barn would water and feed the horses for them and keep them until their owners were ready to go home or move on. Tom Elder later bought the barn and for some time Albert Hougestol was in business with him. Tom Elder sold the barn in 1917. Then Alex Martin owned it for some years until his death in 1925. At that time, it was purchased by Gust and Ida Just who owned it until 1941 when it was sold and torn down.
