Carey Electric was organized in 1923. It was jointly owned by James E. Carey, Twin Lakes, Wisconsin, Walter E. Corey, and the Late James E. Doherty, both of McHenry. The lat­ ter two operated the infant concern. The original site was the M.M.Neisen building on Green Street, which was formerly known as the McHenry Bakery, and is now Barb's Hallmark Shop. It was in 1927 that Walter E. Carey pur­ chased from James E. Carey and James E. Doherty their interests and became sole proprietor. Later that year, a new building was erected, which houses Carey Appliance, Inc., The Blue Camel (formerly McGee's Clothing Store), Huppy and Leo's Grocery Store, and the former Palace Recreation. From this location, he operated an electric shop and an appliance store until 1958. In that year, the facilities on Green Street became too small, therefore, it was divided into two separate businesses. A new 8000 sq. ft. building went up at 3309 Waukegon Road, known as Carey Electric Contracting, Inc., managed by Richard (Dick) Carey. The business on Green Street then became known as Carey Appliance, Inc. Mr. Carey retired in 1963. At that time two employees, Don Weingart, of McHenry, and George Erber, Jr. of Woodstock, took over the appliance business. After 13 more years George Erber, Jr. sold his interest to Bob Smith & Pete Kasper. Since that time, Carey Appliance, Inc. and McGee's Clothing Store, now the Blue Camel, acquired the Palace Recreation as they ex­ panded for more display area. Carey Ap­ pliance, Inc. now has six full-time and three part time employees. AMANA
