I feel it should be mentioned that besides songwriting, Merle Travis' other talents included: prose writing, taxidermy, cartooning and watch repair.
One of the professors I had at UT, Dr. Counts' family was very close to Tennessee Ernie Ford. He told us stories about spending time with him, always referring to him as, "Ernest."
PS: When can I expect the William Martin Joel entry?
