Buddy Holly and Maria Elena Santiago met in June 1958, when The Crickets came to New York City to record. They went out on a date later that same night and he proposed. Less than two months later, they were married on August 15 at Buddy's home in Lubbock, Texas.

The most famous song about Buddy's death is American Pie by Don McLean
Coeur de Pirate (Beatrice Martin), a chanteuse from Quebec. The mp3 can be downloaded from the Activia website.
His band was called the Crickets, but the band and Buddy split and Buddy went solo. The crickets carried on recording and backed Eddie Cochran on 'Three steps to heaven' on his last recording session before his UK tour, unfortunately Eddie died in a car accident while in the UK.
Guitarist Tommy allsup lost the coin toss and his seat on the plane to Ritchie Valens. Fellow back-up musician, bass player Waylon Jennings had already given up his seat to J.P.(Big Bopper) Richardson who had the flu.
He was one of the only American rock musicians to tour England in 1958, and was also on Sunday Night at the Palladium while he was there, so many young people got to see him live, unlike other American performers who didn't tour overseas. He also was one of the biggest influences on The Beatles in sound and name, the name of his band "The Crickets" influencing The Beatles to choose their name. John Lennon was especially a huge fan of Buddy.
Buddy Holly died in a plane crash on February 3, 1959. Although he was thrown from the wreckage, he died on impact and his body was recovered a short distance away.

No..According to the movie based on his life story, Buddy Holly never did drugs of any kind. ...As for his glasses, Buddy himself chozed to wear them to attract his fans; which later became his trademark.
Well, much to my surprise, Buddy Holly (with or without the Crickets) only had one No. 1 Hit. "It Doesn't Matter Any More" in February 1959. It appears that his posthumous releases were more popular.
No. His wife Maria Elena was pregnant at the time of his death, but miscarried.
No he did not, at least while he was alive. The Grammy Awards started in the later part of 1959 after he passed in the plane crash. He might have won something for his posthumus releases though.
I would say that the value would be extremely high, considering the age of the autograph, the legendary status of Buddy and the fact that he died so young, in or even before his prime...
I guess you could compare that to an Eddie Cochran guitar, a Ritchie Valens guitar, a phone used by The Big Bopper in his shows, etc...
A baseball signed by Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and people like that would have an extrenely high value...but I guess that it couldn't beat a Buddy Holly autograph.
I just couldn't say the exact value because it would depend on the quality of the signature, the paper [or anything else] it was written on, etc...
The most important thing of all would be to make sure it is Buddy who signed the autograph, which could be very hard.
They say that only about 4 % of The Beatles' signatures are real. but consiterining it was is the best condison aboat mmmmm...... 70,000$-100,000$!!!!
Although it is arguable as to the exact date that any well-known individual became famous, according to Wikipedia (refer to the link, below), Chuck Berry's probably started " . . . on May 21, 1955 Berry covered "Ida Red" (renamed "Maybellene") with Johnny Johnson, Jerome Green (from Bo Diddley's band) on the maracas, Jasper Thomas on the drums and blues legend Willie Dixon on the bass.
