  Beatrice Parker and Eddie Walton Batchelor. 1917.

  This photo was taken of Karen Batchelor's paternal grandparents, Beatrice Parker and Eddie Walton Batchelor with their daughter Mary Batchelor on the day they arrived in Detroit as part of the Great Migration of Blacks from the South. The promise of a job in Detroit's auto factories motivated Eddie and Beatrice to leave Harris County, Georgia and head North. The picture was taken by an unknown photographer at the station in Detroit when they got off the train from Georgia and faced a new life.
