This band played from 1913 to 1928 in Webb City, Joplin, Carthage, Springfield, several cities in KS, OK and Des Moines, IA. Band members besides Zola were 2 of her brothers: Byrtus and Pallas, along with Eddie Cox, Bruton Woods and Byron Fly. After band broke up, Bryon Fly went on to form his own band, called "The Byron Fly Tri-State Band". Mr Fly later became a judge for the Jasper Co court. Zola continued to perform in the KC area. Later in her life she resided in TN where she died in 1972. She is buried in MO. Zola had 1 more brother, Harry, and a sister, Charlotte. PLEASE contact me if any of these names "ring any bells" for you. Thanks so much. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
