I give. Y'all the best. Since the discussion of this word a while ago,
I've come across an old record by The Trenier Twins (for the purposes
of this surrender, the fact that I know who the Treniers are is
sufficient) with the title, "Poontang." The term also occurs numerous
times in Dance's _Shuckin' an' Jivin'_.
