Hortense Harvey aka Virginia Shine Harvey

Hortense Harvey aka Virginia Shine Harvey
Over the years I have heard lots of stories about Hortense Harvey and her husband Judge Harvey. About the pickin' and grinin' at their house. A lot of talent came through those sessions. Also about how they opened their house during the Jimmie Rodgers Festivals here in Meridian, Mississippi.

I just recently heard from Rattlesnake Annie. She is writing a biography on herself. Her memories of Virginia Shine Harvey will be included. Visit her site at http://www.rattlesnakeannie.com/ .

I would like to hear from anyone who has stories to tell about the Harveys. From what I understand. They reached out and helped a lot of folks. I would like to post the stories on this site and the other blogs I have. Will put the stories in your words. I do request that you post your name and location with your story. I you would like me to post your email address just let me know. Otherwise your email address will be kept confidential.

It is also my intention to have a Hortense Harvey reunion as soon as one can be put together. to submit a story and or help to put a reunion together email myrick52@hotmail.com .
