Henry Alfred George East commenced his own butcher's shop in Station Street between High and Henry Streets. Over the years Henry bought and ran several other butchers in Penrith including White Ways Butchery and Dent's Butchers in High Street where he continued trading until his death at age 69 in 1950. On his death his three sons Noel, Alfred and Henry East continued with the butchering business in the name of East Bros. The East family may be pictured here.
