the show started out as the wsm barn dance in 1925 and the name was later changed to the grand ole opry in 1927. the show was sponsored by national life accident insurance. i can't find no "cuzzin llonzo" in the original opry line up! the is a lonzo and oscar comedy team on the opry in the 40's though. the soleman old judge george d hays was the original announcer a fact that i knew off the top of my head!!

Maybe that was uncle Joe Macon in stead of Cuzzin llonzo.
thats belivable since he was on the original roster!!
