Note the bandage on Grandaddy's left hand. He lost fingers in a railroad injury. He worked for the railroad until the great national railroad strike of 1922. The railroad strike was extremely hostile and the national guard was called out to stop the fighting. After that, he went to work for Alabama Power.
Jim & Tez were married in 1916.
