His legendary (but long-ago-razed) Gilley's Club in Pasadena, Texas was said to have the planet's largest dance floor. Well, it WAS sure big alright, but as a newspaper reporter 1979-80 whose office was literally around the corner from the even-crowded-on-weeknights facility, when inside I often wondered if that claim wasn't just another example of good ol' Texan hyperbole.

The tuneful Gilley, who expired today in Branson, Missouri*, was also often said to be a cousin of both defrocked TV preacher Jimmy Swaggart AS WELL as fellow survivor cousin (and seminal rocker) Jerry Lee Lewis...and while Houstonians ALWAYS were quick to cite both of those familial connections, I never ONCE heard anyone detail specifically how they were related [First cousins? Second cousins? Third-cousins once removed?] !

That said, Gilley always struck me as a quite genial fellow in interviews, which of course is quite in keeping with his Good Ol' Boy public persona.

Upon reflection, I suppose Gilley cousin Swaggart--who WAS certainly DISGRACED epically--was NOT ever defrocked; like almost all TV preachers, he ran his own ministry, and thus I doubt he ever ripped his own preacher stripes off his shoulder, even after tearfully (broadcast-)admitting "I have SINNED!"

Meanwhile, you can decide for yourself how oversized the Gilley's Club dance floor was simply by viewing "Urban Cowboy", a creditable-yet-overhyped John Travolta vehicle which was largely filmed at the venue. (I realize that sometimes such structures don't appear to be as large on-screen as they are in reality.) Further, I wonder if some of those dance halls featured on the RFD Network* in that always-fun weekly series "Molly B's Polka Party" aren't even more expansive than Gilley's was!

"Lewis and Swaggart are double first cousins. Lewis and Gilley are
first cousins. Gilley and Swaggart are first cousins once removed. The
men are related through maternal and paternal lines that Davis details
in his 2012 book Unconquered: The Saga of Cousins Jerry Lee Lewis,
Jimmy Swaggart, and Mickey Gilley."

Appreciate your clearing up this long-simmering mystery, "Friend".

Now I shall look up what the heck a "double first cousin" is.

When two siblings from one family marry two siblings from another
family,the children of the two couples are double first cousins.
(My mother's mother's mother's mother and her sister married two brothers;
my father's father's father and his sister married a sister and brother from
another family).

Where I grew up, a set of identical twins had married another set. The
resulting cousins looked nothing alike.

Brad Ferguson reported a similar occurrence.

Anyway,one or two US states allow first-cousin marriage UNLESS
the would-be spouses are double first cousins.
(Here in NY,first-cousin marriage remains legal,while uncle-niece
marriage got banned in 1893 that was interpreted in 2014 to not
bar HALF-uncle/niece marriage).
