Abstract:

In 1917, the Batchelor brothers, Roy and Ed, established a men's clothing store in Greenville. They were known for keeping up an excellent stock of men's apparel and for being active in numerous civic activities, including the Greenville Golf and Country Club. Roy died in 1928 and Ed sold the business in 1956 to George Coffman, whose men's store is still one of Greenville's most renowned establishments.
