Subject: Origins: historical figure behind Po' Lazarus

Has a historical figure behind the legendary badman ballad Po' Lazarus (aka Bad Lazarus) been identified? The real life individuals who inspired badmen Stagolee and Railroad Bill have been identified, but I don't believe I've ever come across the name of the individual who inspired Po' Lazarus.
