On the chronology of the girls vocal groups. . . I was with Vaughn with my sisters, The Lee Sisters and then when they wanted to quit because of marriages to men in the service, I left and went with Dick Rogers Band for six months as a soloist. I came back to New York after that 6 months and later joined Vaughn's band with the Norton Sisters. They were a trio and I joined them to make it a quartette. Later, when they were getting married in 1946, he hired the girls from Texas and Vaughn named us the Moon Maids. There were 5 girls in the beginning, but after several months of traveling, ArleneTruax went back to Texas. That left Mary Jo, Tinker, June and myself.
I left Vaughn's band on December 20th, 1952 to get married.
