It's probably Dalhart..Sutton's pseudonym book gives George White as Vernon 
Dalhart on Pathe and Perfect labels, Frankie Marvin on OKeh 45000s, and Georgia 
White on Decca 7216 but that was a typo (or a slip of the surgeon's scalpel).

He used Bob White many times, but this is the first time I have found him as George White ! I will still throw it up there on my Youtube Channel just so everyone can hear it.

Just curious.
