Charley,

I'm looking at My mother's song book and "De Massa ob de Sheepfol" SHe has credited Miss McClean and J.M. Whyte. So she must have found it in the same hymn book as "Animaterra." By I can remember her singing it to me as a lullaby when I was quite young. I'd guess she added it to her collection sometim in the 1930's.
