Alonzo Mullendore - Honeywell Heating and Specialties Employee

Alonzo Mullendore was born on a farm in Walton, IN on August 31, 1905. At the age of 17 he left the farm and moved into Peru, IN where he spent the next four years working at area businesses such as Square D, American Stationary, and a local auto parts manufacturer. He even spent several months working in Laporte, IN at the Advance-Rumley Thrashing Machine Works. In 1921 Alonzo met his future wife and moved to Wabash, IN to start work for the Honeywell Heating Specialties Company. Over the next 44 ½ years he would remain at Honeywell’s, serving in a number of different positions in many different capacities. In this interview conducted by George Dingledy on January 31, 1973, Alonzo Mullendore relates his time while working for Honeywell’s. He discusses in depth what Mr. Honeywell was really like, the varied products they produced, how they worked and survived through the “Great Depression”, and what the merger with the Minneapolis Heat Regulator Company was really like. Additionally, he goes into unionization attempts at the factory, what the plant was like during World War II, and how he, and others employees, would be personally asked by Mr. Honeywell to help in the construction of the Honeywell Center. This audio is an interview that was conducted as part of the Wabash Carnegie Public Library Oral History Project. From 1970 to 1987 Wabash Carnegie Public Library and members of the community worked on an Oral History Project that interviewed multiple people in Wabash. These were recorded on cassette tapes, which were later converted to CD in 2006. Subscribe to keep up with our local history!
