Barry,I've got the same book - and I'll be happy to post the tunes for any words you care to post. It'll be the red midi-text listing in tiny writing plus the abc format. But it's 1.30 a.m. in England, so I won't start till tomorrow.
The Bury New Loom is in the DT database without a tune. Also a version of Nine Times a Night - I haven't checked the tune but it sounds similar. The Manchester Canal says in the book that it's a version of "The Calabar", and that's the tune in the DT, but Harry Boardman's tune is "Brighton Camp/Girl I Left Behind Me"
Incidentally, all the tunes are either by Harry Boardman, or arranged or adapted by him, and are marked Copyright Maypole Music 1972. So much for public domain!
