John Gardner

Historique

John Gardner est né en Angleterre et y aurait travaillé une dizaine d'années dans le domaine pharmaceutique avant de s'établir à Montréal vers 1845. Les annuaires de Montréal mentionnent sa pharmacie pour le première fois en 1854 sur Notre-Dame. Vers 1877, on indique qu'il est propriétaire du Gardner's Medical Hall sur Ste-Catherine. On atteste son existence pour la dernière fois en 1891, au coin des rues Notre-Dame et McGill.
