Henry Clay Rue, c. 1909

Henry and Harriet Rue and their adult sons Charles and Fred relocated from Michigan to Stuart in 1924. They purchased the Butter Kist Shoppe on Flagler Avenue, next door to the Feroe Building, and renamed it Rue's Sweet Shop, which continued operating until 1944. The building was demolished in the 1980s and in 2024 it is a gated courtyard garden.
