The Capt. John H. Ozmon Store is a historic general store located at Centreville, Queen Anne's County, Maryland. It is a two-story brick building constructed about 1880 into the side of a steep bank, with the store occupying the lower story and a dwelling on the second floor. Captain Ozmon was a prominent local merchant who built a considerable business transporting grain, lumber, and other merchandise by sailing schooner between Baltimore, Norfolk, and points on the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
