For John Beaconsfield Evans, a routine two-hour railway stop in 1903 was the start of a life-long career in the clothing business, and the start of a four-generation family business lasting over a 100 years.
While returning home to Corinth, Ontario, from a stint of harvesting out west, the young John Evans was inspired to explore job opportunities in the booming pioneer city of Fort William. After working for nine years for clothing retailer Rutledge & Jackson, the entrepreneurial John opened his own store in 1912 at 122 W. Frederica Street - where it has remained to this day.
Store management has also remained in the family since 1912. John's son Jack took the reins in 1935, and was then passed to his son-in-law Jack Moro in the 1970's. Today Jack along with his wife Barbara (Evans) and their son Andrew maintain the Evans standard of quality, service and style.
