Dear Marek,<br>
I depends where you look.<br>
The "Cara" given in discographies, (Rust, etc.) is wrong.<br>
His real was name was Mancy Carr, born in 1899 and died 10 February 1946.<br>
Confirmed back in the 1970s to John Chilton by Louis Armstrong.<br>
And shown on a captioned publicity photograph of the Carroll Dickerson Orchestra.<br>
