Melville Dairy Horse-Drawn Wagon
The Melville Dairy operated in Burlington, North Carolina for forty (40) years from 1927 to 1967.
It used Horse-Drawn Wagon during its early years of operation in and around Burlington. It was founded by brothers Ralph Henderson Scott Sr. and Henry A. Scott.
It first sold dairy products directly from the family farm in the Hawfields community. By 1935, the brothers had built a plant in Burlington to process and sell milk from their own farm and other local dairies. Eventually, 150 farms provided milk to Melville Dairy Products
Coleman and myself saw this Melville Dairy Wagon on display when we visited The North Carolina Transportation Museum in Spencer, North Carolina back in 2021. [He loved seeing all the automobiles, carriage, airplanes and trains.] It was restored by Byron Hargrove Siler City, NC.
All information regarding this Melville Dairy Wagon was obtained from the NC Transportation Museum.
