| Notes |
- Clyde’s early years were spent framing in Merrilltown in the northern part of Travis County. He attended Merrilltown School before entering Round Rock High graduating in 1934 in a class of 16. Because his mother had died when he was 13, he stayed at home to help his father on the farm. He continued to do so after his marriage. He farmed 148 acres with four mules—and no tractors. In 1941 they left the farm and moved to the northern part of Austin where he worked selling insurance, doing milk and bread routes, and as a custodian before going to work for the Internal Revenue Service in 1943. With the exception of one year to serve in the Navy (1945-1946) he worked at the Internal Revenue Service until his retirement in 1973. Clyde enjoys playing softball, bowling and keeping a beautiful yard. A yearly highlight was deer hunting on the von Rosenberg ranch in south Texas. After retiring from the IRS he worked at Farmers State Bank in Round Rock for fine and one-half years and also had his own income tax service, working out of his home. He was a Deacon in the First Baptist Church, the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce, and Kiwanis Club, serving as vice president of both organizations.
