As I've said, they're usually popular songs (i.e. popular with the audience). The versions collected from Nottinghamshire mention, for example '"A Farmer's Boy" and other popular songs'. "A Farmer's Boy" is circa 1830. I haven't come across a great deal of mention of songs from "The Minstrel Craze", though they'd come under the category of popular songs.

Somewhere, I have a set of 3 songs as sung after the play from one of the Notts villages. I'll try and drag it out.
