Talk:Spanky Wilson

Name and date of birth
Anyone have any reliable information on her birth name and date? It's not easy to find sources. Her brother was born in 1936, but that obit contains some quite confusing information. Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:56, 4 October 2015 (UTC) PS: It appears from the 1940 census that her brother was born Richard J. Henry, the son of Richard and Zella E. Henry, and that he had a sister, Lowella J. Henry, born c.1939 (aged 1 in 1940). No knowing, of course, if Lowella Henry became Spanky Wilson, but it may help guide researchers (not here, obviously).

Ghmyrtle (talk) 11:57, 5 October 2015 (UTC) However....  this review gives her age as 23 in 1970. Ghmyrtle (talk) 20:08, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
