Mary Humphreys Imaginary places in song?? (109* d) RE: Imaginary places in song?? 27 Jan 10


Back to Bohenny in Georgie/Geordie.
In Vaughan Williams' song collection made in Ccambridgeshire during the years 1906-1908 he picked up a version of Georgie where the deer sales were made in Den/Fen Caney. ( It depends on how you read his handwriting, which was ambiguous at best.)
It stands to reason that local singers would never have heard of Bohenny ( I can't think of anywhere local with a name like that) but a Fen Caney would have been plausible.( Fens are rather common thereabouts!)
