Pasteur-Galt Apothecary


Company Names, addresses, dates:
  Pasteur-Galt Apothecary, Williamsburg VA (1775-1778) 1

Notes:
I don't have any bottles from the Pasteur-Galt Apothecary. So far as I know, drugstores didn't sell anything in bottles back in the 1770s.
But today a museum/shop exists where the apothecary was.
The partners were William Pasteur and John Minson Galt1.

Some of the other apothecaries and their years of operation were: 1
