...and Frank Hamilton and Valucha Buffington Arneson were a very nice duo around Chicago in other times.
The Old Town Singers were Guy Guilbert (guitar), Barb Stracke, and someone else I can't recall.
Maybe it was Ginni Clemmens.
I do know that Guy and Ginni were a trio in Chicago with with Elaine McFarland.
Later Elaine McFarland used the name SPANKY and was in a folk/pop group with Oz Bach and Fred Williams called SPANKY AND OUR GANG. They had some hits---one I think was called "Monday (or Sunday)Will Never Be The Same".
And a good group with Anne Hills and Bob Gibson and Tom Paxton called BEST OF FRIENDS. I believe a live performance CD of these three is out now.
