J.S. Hall and George V. Wynne established Hall-Wynne & Co. in 1904 in downtown Durham. The firm moved to its current Main Street location in 1926, occupying the first purpose-built mortuary in the Southeast—a Greek revival building that combines historic architecture with modern facilities.
Mark T. Higgins and C. Michael Poole purchased the funeral home in 1992. Michael O'Connor joined as a stockholder and vice president in 2005, then became principal owner and president in October 2019. The business remains privately owned and operated rather than part of a corporate consolidation.
Hall-Wynne serves families throughout Durham, Chapel Hill, Hillsborough, and Orange County. The funeral home offers in-home arrangement consultations and can conduct services at families' places of worship or other chosen locations. An on-site crematory provides comprehensive cremation services alongside traditional burial options.
