George & Ethel McCoy - Mary aka "Penitentiary"

very cool - so who is this? she related to the "famous" McCoys?

@uardone indeed, indeed ...I found that there is some info about them on the ancient "Adelphi records" website - I strongly recommend checking out the page - since it has one of a kind video footage of the likes of this and Rev Robert Wilkins (thanks for posting this in high quality by the way)

... the song they're doing is called "Mary" (aka "Penitentiary"), also on 1970 Adelphi LP AD 1004

Wow,I'm a fan of Memphis Minnie now Im a fan of her niece and nephew as well. Are they still liveing?It would be something to see them live

That’s my grandfather 💯

Memphis Minnie's niece and nephew

That's my great uncle and aunt! I would to watch them perform this song on the porch.The music still live through out our family.

In VERY loving memory of Mrs. Ethel Lee McCoy-Wooten (1923 - 1991 R.I.P. Gone but NOT forgotten).
