De Loach, R. J. H. (Robert John Henderson), 1873-1964.
R.J.H. De Loach was a professor at the University of Georgia, an investigator into questions bearing on the cotton industry, a director of the Armour Company, and a close friend of John Burroughs and Harvey Firestone Jr. Between 1915 and 1924, Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Firestone, and Burroughs, calling themselves The Four Vagabonds, embarked on a series of summer camping trips. Others joined the group at various times, including family members, business associates, photographers, and newsmen. DeLoach took part in 1918, which was also the first trip for Henry Ford. The route included portions of Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina, with a return via the Blue Ridge Mountains. The entourage included six vehicles, two trucks, and a seven-man crew.
