==History==
Patrick and Agatha McBride had this house built in 1890. Beginning in 1865 Patrick, an Irish immigrant, operated a grocery store in the city. After his death, Agatha sold the house in 1902 to Dennis J. Hickey, Sr. His two sons, Dennis Jr. and William owned a wholesale and retail cigar
company named Hickey Brothers. They resided in the house as well. William served as president and treasurer of the company and Dennis was the vice-president and secretary. The company was organized in 1901 with a single store. By 1905 they had several local stores and before the start of World War II it had grown into a company that did $2 million in business with 46 stores across the United States. It grew to 55 retail shops that operated in hotels and small shops by 1941. Eight years later they operated 120 stores in the United States and Cuba. The company headquarters remained in Davenport.
