Thread Name: Origins: Westphalia Waltz
Subject: RE: Help: 'Westphalia Waltz' origin?
Hello,

my mother in law is named Jackie Collins who was related to Cotton Collins. The family story is that he indeed wrote the Westphalia Waltz around 1946 for a dance in Westphalia, Texas. The family still plays it and dances at our reunions today.
