This was my Father. I would appreciate any information you may have on his 43 years of service with the C of GA RR when he took "EARLY" retirement. He began his career with the C of Ga as a common laboror building the bridge below the dam at the Gantt Pond (AL) in the very early 20's.

My two brothers and myself would be interested in joining the society. Also both brothers, James D and Bill E Bates worked for the C of GA after their high school years in the late 40's & early 50's in Columbus Ga.
