  1. Elmer had another 78 record put out by his own label Elmer's Country Boys with the songs "Hot Dog" and another (I forgot the title of that one). His band at that time was called "Elmer and the Country Boys." I have the record at my house. It seems to indicate that Elmer had at least one other record under his own label. I can send some pictures if you would like to see the record. I just got it about 6 months ago south of Nashville, Tennessee.

  2. I meant that Elmer's label was called "Elmer's Country Records" and the band was referred to "Elmer Snodgrass and the Country Boys." I am about two hours away from Gainesville, Georgia.
