Jazz Musician
Photo by William P. Gottlieb circa 1947
Bill was born in Paris Kentucky in Boubon county Kentucky, about 1904.
His family moved to Cincinati. He traveled and played around the world, where he died in Toulon France.
It is said he performed with one J.C.Higginbothom, another musician. It has been proposed that this individual might be a relative of Bill Coleman, perhaps the middle initial being Coleman. (Researchers or those familiar with these two persons and families, are being sought -- contact us at colemanway.com)
