1930–1949
William Hass, now alone — about 1935 he bought out George Bales's interest; the years 1935–1945 diversified the house into Hass Wholesale, Hass Concrete and Portage Realty, three Granger-bound names carried on the founder's own line. Teachers Credit Union — founded 1931 in South Bend by the city's teachers, a collective founding with no individual founder named in the record reached; its Granger office at 13050 State Road 23 belongs to a later bucket, and its 2023 rename stands in the succession record the register already scores covered. Martin Tarnow and Jane (Cary) Tarnow — founders, 1947, of Martin's Super Markets in South Bend, a first store of 800 square feet; the chain's Granger stores (Store #16 and Heritage Square) belong to the corridor buckets, and the founding pair is entered here because every later Granger grocery line descends from it. Jane Tarnow is entered as co-founder in her own right, not as a founder's wife — see the women sweep.
