Well, I got it working, I think.

I had to rename the volume group by UUID since I had 2 that were the 
same name.  Then after I rebooted, I could mount logical volumes inside 
the new renamed volume group.  (I probably didn't have to reboot, but I 
couldn't figure out what to do to get lvm refreshed).

Thanks for the advice.
