Thank you for sharing this wonderful photo! For those of you who might not know, this photo was taken in Mariposa Grove in Yosemite National Park. This is the Wawona Tree, or Wawona Tunnel Tree, that stood 227 feet tall and was estimated to be 2,300 years old. It was very popular to take photos of carriages and cars traveling through the man-carved tunnel from it's inception in 1881 until the massive tree fell in 1969.
My great grandfather, Nelson Howard, is 2nd from left. This is the Board of Santa Anita Racetrack. He passed away before I was able to ask him who these people were, so I got the names from Mr. Strub, son of the Strub pictured. They are from left:
Victor Ford Collins, 1st sect. of the corp. and general counsel to the Turf Club, Nelson A. Howard, Dr. Charles/Doc Strub, Hal Roach, Leigh Battson, Arthur Hastings and Dwight Whiting. These men were largely responsible for getting the race track built at Santa Anita in about 1934.
