Thread Name: What was the Bonny Blue Bell?
Subject: RE: What was the Bonny Blue Bell?
The curious thing to me is that this song with this "Bonny Blue Bell" was collected so long after song "Bonnie Blue Flag"--the name is such a distinctive one that one can't help but to think that it is an allusion to "Bonny Blue Bell"--the melody is similar, as well--
