GUEST,katrobrosi Urban Ballads (15) Urban Ballads 02 Oct 17

Hi - I am researching Ballads (esp 19thC) on specifically urban topics; life in the emerging towns and cities. There are hundreds of ballads with a twonj mentioned but merely as the setting for some romance (thwarted and/or consummated); I'm more interested in songs that tell of the new lives people were leading. My researches have found perhaps 40 or 50 but I feel sure there are more out there. Any ideas would be welcomed. Cheers
