What the evidence supports

Oklahoma Senate SR25, 2003 session, describes a Ritz Ballroom, Oklahoma City residency in the middle and late 1930s and associates Charlie Christian and Charles Waterford.

Limits and open questions

Retrospective commemorative evidence, not a contemporary engagement record. The PDF footer’s 2015 timestamp does not make this a 2015 resolution.

Confidence detail: medium. Evidence notes are not a count of distinct ensembles.
