756)   CROCKERY WARE  The DT file is a transcription from a recording by Margaret Christl, and names no traditional source. It is almost certainly taken from Kenneth Peacock's Songs of the Newfoundland Outports (1965); the set there was noted from Everett Bennett of St. Paul's, in 1958. Christl has made some minor alterations to the text, mostly not worth mentioning, though I'd specify that her verse 1, line 4, Was to lay with her one night, was previously It was to lay with her one night, which better fits the tune. The final word of each line of the chorus should be woe, not oh; this seems a very small point, but it's worth mentioning as that particular nonsense refrain was very common in songs noted in Southern England in the early years of the 20th century. Midi made from Peacock's notation. Quite a common song in tradition in England (where it appeared on broadsides) and Canada; also occasionally found in the North of Ireland. Roud Index number 1490.

2263)  MARRY? OH NO, NOT I  The DT file is a transcription from a recording by Margaret Christl, and names no traditional source. I think it a fairly safe bet that this was also taken from Peacock, who published a set -from Everett Bennett again- which is textually nearly identical, though Christl has made some minor alterations; including the title, which was Oh No, Not I. Compare, first Bennett's first verse, then Christl's:

A Newfoundland sailor was walking the Strand,
He met a pretty fair maid, and took her by the hand,
Saying, "Will you come to Newfoundland along with me?" he cried.
And the answer that she made to him was "Oh no, not I."

A Newfoundland sailor was walking by the strand
He spied a pretty fair young maid, and took her by the hand
"Oh, will you go to Newfoundland, along with me?" he cried
But the answer that she gave him was, "It's, oh no, not I."

That's The Strand in London, rather than the seaside! Midi made from Peacock's notation. The song has turned up quite a bit in England and Canada, and occasionally in the USA; it appeared on 19th century broadsides both as No, my love, not I and The Newfoundland Sailor. Roud Index number 1403.
