Tonettes?
I have a booklet written by Rob Bowman, "The Complete Stax/Volt Singles", accompanying the 9 cd box set "The Complete Stax/Volt Singles 1959-1968", 1991, Atlantic, 782218-2. It has this to say about The Tonettes (page 5):
"In the first half of 1962, Jim Stewart issued his second, third and fourth vocal group records. The Tonettes were a female vocal group who graced the labels of the second and fourth Volt releases. At this point in time most people are vague as who exactly the Tonettes were, although a few people think they might have, in one form or another, mutated into the Charmels who recorded for Volt in 1966 and 1967. In any case, they are definitively not the group the Tonettes that were made up of soul singer Oscar Toney, Jr.'s sisters."
