HENRY LUMBER INC.

In 1961 Paul’s son Jack S. Henry joined his father in the family business. Sadly they only worked together for a short time because Jack died at an early age in 1965. Paul continued the business alone until his grandson Jack S. Henry II joined him in 1970. Jack graduated from the University of Toledo prior to joining his Grandfather.

In 1981 Paul and Jack decided to relocate the main showroom and offices to the east end of Quarry St.. Paul began phasing himself out throughout the early to mid 1980’s. In May of 1986 Paul suffered a stroke and never recovered and died on the 31st. Jack was left as sole operator. Soon after in July of 1986 Jack’s son Michael S. Henry began working part time in the summers at the age of 13.

Michael worked every summer and Christmas break until he graduated from The Ohio State University in 1996. Michael began his full time employment that summer. Michael worked in the yard for several years then moved to truck driver and then to yard foreman. Jack and Michael have been jointly running the business for the past several years as Michael moved to the office to take over the accounting.

Several years ago Jack retired and left Michael in charge of the operations. He still checks in from time to time.

Michael made the decision about 8 years ago to buy another building in order to display more products and be more accessible to a wide variety of consumers. The Showroom finally had the grand opening on October 14, 2023.  The Showroom is an expansion of Henry Lumber Inc. it is located in downtown Marion. The Showroom is the newest addition to Downtown Marion that displays products that the Lumber Yard has had for years, but never had room to show off. The space is designed to allow consumers to be able to walk through and see the material in person. The realistic displays that are in the new facility show the material installed to allow people to see the product in a bigger picture. We have samples that you are able to take home and see in your space.
