Its been a long time and my memory ain't so good any more....
As I recall, Charlie was the son. His Dad was the owner, and also owned the Hardware store and was the mayor.
I used to go to the bar every day after work for a few beers and always got eyed by the locals. Of course my accent identifies me as a yankee for sure. One day the bartender came over and wouldn't give me another beer. He asked me a lot of questions, and when he found out I was helping Mr Hatfield (and not a union rep trying to organize the cotton pickers....LOL) they ALL bought me a beer and I was welcomed from that day on.
Like I said....memories....
