Morgan and Lindsey Incorporated

Morgan and Lindsey Incorporated

Morgan and Lindsey, Incorporated, operated variety chain stores, which at one time had eighty-five outlets in Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi. Their headquarters were in Jasper, Texas. It was eventually absorbed into the G. C. Murphy Company.

The Morgan and Lindsey store in Minden, Louisiana, was relocated in 1923 to make way for a new department store, West Brothers, founded by H.O. West and his brothers, natives of DeRidder, Louisiana. By 1955, West had thirty-one stores in the chain. It disappeared in the late 1980s. Morgan and Lindsey continued to operate at two other locations in Minden.[1]
