I was born in 1921. I traded some animals for my first guitar. When I was 15 I won my first talent contest. I had a number one hit that I didn't live long enough to see it hit the charts or enjoy the successes of it. I was married to a female singer who still performs. I have not been elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame and I may never as some of the greats other than myself have been passed over.

That's Hankshaw Hawkins. The reason he didn't live to see the success of his #1 country hit was because he was killed in the same plane crash as Patsy Cline was.

Hank Williams Sr. His "Your Cheatin Heart" went to number 1 but he was already dead and gone. I don't know who he was married to but I bet you know. Tell us when you pick a Best Answer please.
