THE PAULL SISTERS

Julia was one of the Paull Sisters, together with her sister Ruth. Julia passed away last August 104 years old. Thanks to Judye, her daughter, I can show you some new photos and news paper clippings from Julia's scrap book and some new information, that was unknown up to now.

THE PAULL SISTERS

I asked Judye if she knew why her mother and aunt named themselves the Paull Sisters and not the Brock Sisters.

I'm not sure why they chose "Paull Sisters" because they were using that name when the sang with Phil Spitalny and that was before Paul Whiteman. I do know that there was early reference the singing as the Brock Sisters, but my mother said there was another singing group at that time known as the Brock Sisters and they didn't want to be confused with them. I'm sure that they used the double "L" in Paul to be sure it was considered a surname. That would have been my mother's flair. Well - Reading her explanation this must have been the vocal group her mother mentioned: Brox Sisters.
