The name “Newberry Cafe” is derived from the J.J Newberry Co., a variety store which operated in the building for nearly 60 years. Newberry’s, founded by John Josiah Newberry in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, was a successful five and-dime store chain throughout the U.S. and Canada through most of the 20th century. It was a beloved store that served generations of Canton residents. |
