He sold it to Metcalf and Serman in 1883. It became Sherman and Moore in 1884. R. C. Murdock bought the partnership and ran it until 1900. It was then bought by William Cobb and L. Brooks. Brooks soon took sole ownership and in 1916 sold it to Dedrick and Marty. They moved the business one store north to 1022 First Center Avenue, now Jeremy Pinnow & Associates. Frank H. Dedrick's son Frank W. joined the firm in 1935 and took over the business from his father. Frank W.'s son Brain joined the firm in 1971.
