Inventor, Businessman, Banker. Second son of John and Mary Eusebia (Robinson) Mullendore, was born in Johnson county, Indiana in 1871. When he was eleven years of age he moved with his parents to a farm near Howard, Kansas, where he remained until 1892. In this latter year a fertile body of land known as the "Strip," in the present state of Oklahoma, was opened by the government for settlement, the settlers being required to race from a given line for a location on the land. Erd, with his brother Dave, made this race, and they secured a valuable piece of land in a desirable section of the new territory. While living on this farm Erd met Sarah Jane "Jennie" Berry of Stillwater, Oklahoma, to whom he was married in 1897. Erd Mullendore is one of the leading citizens of his community as well as one of the wealthiest. His success is due in a large measure to his keen judgment, his judicious management and clean living. His business interests are varied as he is at the same time a farmer, an oil man, and a banker. His home farm, consisting of a section of land adjoining the town of Cleveland, is one of the best farms in the state of Oklahoma.
