Hersh & Brother hardware was established in 1872 by James N and Frank H Hersh at 804 Hamilton Street. It later moved to 829 Hamilton in February 1888 where it remained in business until April 1919. James N Hersh passed in 1908 and Frank H Hersh in 1915, after which the company was led by G Willis Hersh, Edgar E Hersh and Harvey Hersh, all sons of James N Hersh. In 1916, the Hersh family established a manufacturing plant for heating and ventilation systems.
