From 1914 until his death in 1951, Henry Gardner was the town barber in Tellico Plains, TN. He tended a barber shop adjacent to Tallent Hardware Company in the town square. In the center is its facade with the barber pole clearly visible beside the entrance. His wife, Flossie (Hall) Gardner, served as postmistress in Tellico Plains from 1935 - 1964. The post office was the fourth building to the right across the street from Wall-Carringer & Company, General Merchandise and Meat Market.
