Pete,

Okay, okay, I'll get off my pitutee and find the record so I can give people the origins of there songs.

Yes the group Staverton Bridge was/is from Devon. The liner notes (SAYDISC SDL266) say "The Request of the Poor" is a "broadside of the 19th century, fairly typical of its type., It as sold mainly in Sussex and a few neighbouring counties."

It's a great record, I recommend it.
