Earl King and Pearl King
I'd always thought, and read, that "Pearl King" - a co-writer on some of Dave Bartholomew's songs - was a pseudonym of Earl King, and I've edited his article accordingly. But, I've just discovered this book (p.40), which says that Pearl King was Dave Bartholomew's wife. This seems to be confirmed by online directories that I can access via Ancestry.com, that give Dave L. and Pearl K. Bartholomew living in Robert Street, New Orleans, in 1960. There seems to be some confusion! Can anyone shed any light on this? Ghmyrtle (talk) 07:36, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
 * That is completely correct; Pearl King was Bartholomew's wife's maiden name; Bartholomew sometimes used it as composer credit for contractual reasons. (I presume linking it to "Earl King" was no more than someone's guess due to similar names.)  Confirmed by author Coleman sited, who interviewed both King and Bartholomew about such details. -- Infrogmation (talk) 08:11, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Interesting. I don't think it affects the Dave Bartholomew article, but it certainly affects this one, where Earl King is mistakenly given the credit for writing, among others "One Night", where the credit should be for Pearl King.  The error seems to have been made in this anonymous edit.  I'll take it out.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 08:33, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
