Eason and Son - A brief History.
The company which is now Eason & Son was  founded in 1819 as J.K. Johanston & Co, newspaper and advertising agency based on Eden Quay in Dublin. In 1850, it was taken over the English-based WH Smith.

In 1856, Smith appointed Charles Eason as his manager in Dublin. Born in 1823 in Yeovil, Charles Eason has served as an apprentice printer in Colchester before running Smith's bookstall at Victoria Station in Manchester.

Eason's arrival in Ireland to run Smith's Irish operation coincided with massive expansion of bookselling and newspaper industry in Ireland due to the growth of railways and growing literacy rate.
Eason opened its first branch in Belfast 1868. His Son, John,  joined him in 1901.
