C.M. Baker & Son's Furniture Store was built in 1880, replacing the store that had just burned down only five months earlier. In 1927 it was the oldest furniture store and undertaking business in Dwight and had been enlarged in 1890 & 1911. By the mid-50s four generations of Bakers had been involved in the business. . The undertaking business was moved to a new location in 1946.
