The Crabtree Collection
Railroad workers

The following was written on the back of the photo by Mary Mabel Cobb Crabtree: "Camping at Tom Masoncup farm in Shakerag, Olive Branch Neighborhood. Dagos and their families at work building up first railroad through Slaughters. I don't know why Dad called them Dagos, they were foriegners all I know."

Photo by Claude Leonidas Crabtree, Aug 10, 1910.
