My Great-Uncle, George Osborne, was the opening act for the Stanley
Brothers, and played with them on the WCYB Farm and Fun Time.

I told one of my friends at my High School, and he just about laughed me
out of the building.  So, I began a search to prove it.  However, I can't
find any recordings or records or anything about those days, to prove that
he really was.  Can anybody help me?

Thanks,

I was born in Glade Spring, VA and grew up around Abingdon and Bristol area. I remember George Osborne being on Farm and Fun Time, but I don't remember when. I left the area in Jan. 1954 and completed more than twenty years in the military. He must have been on prior to that date. Merry Christmas.
