Thomas Phillip Lloyd

Thomas Phillip Lloyd, known as Philip, was a Chapel Hill pharmacist. A 1920 graduate of the university's pharmacy school, he worked for many years at the Patterson Brothers drugstore on East Franklin Street. When that store failed in 1930, he and James Manning Pritchard bought it from the receivers and ran it as Pritchard-Lloyd. Pritchard bought him out in 1936, and in 1940 Lloyd opened his own Carolina Pharmacy on East Franklin Street.
