Opened as The Music Hall by John Howell and C.K. Campbell in 1874. Retrofitted and rebranded as the Lyric Theatre on January 5, 1903 to show photoplays. Closed briefly at the end of 1905 for refurbishing, it re-opened as the Family Theatre on September 17, 1906 and was a site for live plays, minstrel shows and boxing matches. It likely has a ten-year lease ceasing operations in June of 1916. A classified ad sells all contents of the theater in 1917 including seats and scenery with the theatre dismantled.
