I know a Walter Adams near Louisa, Ky. that use to be in a band. Was the Bluegrass Playboys from the Louisa area?
|
The book i have on Lawrence Co. states that they were a Lawrence based group. Thurman Endicott was my husband's greatuncle, talk in the family is that Thurman was a great player. Shirley

You mentioned a Lawrence Co. book, is that the Lawrence Co. History book? I'll e-mail you Walters' phone number, maybe he could help you.

yes my aunt Elouise gave it to me she got it in 1979 because we have alot of relatives in and around Louisa especially in the Blaine and Irish Creek area. I would like to find out some more info on the Bluegrass Playboys and i would like to talk to Mr. Adams thank you again Shirley

Small world isn't it? I was raised on Irish Creek. I e-mailed Mr. Adams phone number & address to you, I got it from Yahoo people search, did you get it? There is a Lawrence Co. Ky. History book that was published around 1991, I'll check in it Friday & see if there is anything. Good luck in your search. Clarice Young Kelly
