My mom took lessons at Murphy's music and then from Walter and Mildred Wright in the 40's and 50's and she was wondering if there were others out there who maybe had pictures from performances. Joy Cox was her maiden name.
UPDATE: My mom's 75th birthday is coming up and she wanted me to see if I could try again to find anyone from that area who might have pictures.

So was the BBD for real, or just song lyrics? |

My mom said she didn't recognize the name. She was done playing by then. Its too bad she hadn't kept up on E-harp. Not many players left of that instrument. |
