Joe Offer Origins: Loving Hannah - Bawley Boat? (35) RE: Origins: Loving Hannah - Bawley Boat? 13 Sep 18

Here's a question I got by email:

    I was recently searching the internet when I came across your website. I was looking for information about a song and found one similar to some lyrics that I purchased at an auction.

    The lyrics go like this:

    "I road to church last Sunday
    And my love she passed me by
    I knew her mind was changing
    by the rolling of her eye".

    "I knew her mind was changing
    to some other high degree
    ????? I my lovely Mary
    why can't you fancy me".

    It also contains three more verses. Some of the writing is difficult to make out.

    It looks to be titled "Lovely Mary Hannash", is original and handwritten and is dated 1864.

    Would you have any information on this or where else I might find information?

    Thanks,

    Charles
