Thanks Q,

John Garst is a reliable researcher. Most of what I wanted was there on that thread. Seems like the Parlor song, "Lady of Love" was spread and rewritten.

For it be in Wehman's collection it was probably in circulation for a while before it was published making it a post Civil War parlor song.

Now if we can find Wehman's source!
