The following information was taken from a web site (goolricks.com/historyhindex.html),
which is no longer available:
William Barber Goolrick (1847-1909) fought in the civil war, then returned to
Fredericksbugr and founded Goolrick's Pharmacy in 1869. In the late 1890s the
store was moved from it's original location to 901 Caroline Street, where it is
still in operation today.
