Notes

Harold was raised on Circle Dr.in Cedar Rapids, IA. His father built a n ew house on several acres extending to Center Point Rd. The children walk ed to Cold Springs school (about where the Spring House is located) Durin g the depression the family lost the house and acreage on Circle Dr and r eturned to Springville. Harold walked the family cow the 15 miles or so f rom Circle Dr. to the house in Springville. At the age of 19 he owned 1s t Street Flour and Feed at the corner of 1st Ave and 1st St. in Cedar Rap ids. (This store prior to Harold's feed store was known as Horacks Saloo n holding 5 bunk houses in the front and a barn and stable in the back. T he Budwieser horses were boarded there.) After discharged from the Army a nd returning to Springville he purchased the tavern were business was a b ooming affair. After marrying, they then purchased the grocery store; Ba tchelder's Grocery and the Springville Cafe. Later on he and Bonnie owne d the Glass Tap Tavern in Monticello, IA, being the first tavern there t o offer liquor by the drink. Harold was the 2nd boy (out of 5) Howard be ing 1st.- where it's been said that his mother upon the birth of Harold t hought she might switch the two boys names'. Harry (Pat) Batchelder, Haro ld's father; was quite worried about all the boys going off to the war-an d sure enough, all 5 were in the Army, Air Force, or Merchant Marines al l at the same time. Harold was injured (his leg) during WW II and spent o ver a year in O' Rielly General Hospital in Springfield, MO as they trie d to save his leg. Although it never completely healed correctly, it di d mend and he eventually went home. As a young man he would do farm wor k for the Gardemanns on their farm. When he was 18-Bonnie Gardemann - wh o would later be his wife-was 8. Many years later they married. Harold an d Bonnie lived the majority of their married life on their acerage in Par atla (on the blacktop between Springville and Mt. Vernon) At one time-pri or to the Batchelder family- Paralta was quite a railroad town boasting s tockyards, turnarounds between Chicago and Cedar Rapids- and it's been sa id - once upon a time-a hiding place for bootleg moonshine. The home pla ce of Harold and Bonnie could be classified as Ol' McDonald's Farm. The y had a little of every type of animal with almost all the neices and nep hews enjoying the horses, dogs etc and always the creek that ran by. A t the age of 80 Harold continues to live there-farming a small patch of s oybeans [S127]
