Encyclopedia of Alabama - Adele "Vera" Hall - http://encyclopediaofalabama.org/face... - mkz

"In 1948, Hall traveled with John Lomax's son, Alan, to New York and performed at the American Music Festival at Columbia University on May 15. During the trip, Alan and his wife, Elizabeth, conducted interviews with Hall that appeared in a fictional biographical portrayal of Hall in the novel, The Rainbow Sign . . . Little is known about Hall after the . . . publication of The Rainbow Sign other than that she continued to work as washerwoman and cook. In 1964, Hall died and was buried in the Livingston Cemetery near Morning Star Baptist Church. Her gravesite is now lost, after the wooden cross marking the site was bulldozed away at some time in the 1970s." - mkz
