Hi, Eric-
I typed the link wrong when I posted it in 2004. Click here to play the MIDI.
M You can find out a little more about Mamie Mansfield in the Frank C. Brown Collection of North Carolina Folklore at Google Books. Apparently Mamie Mansfield was the source for a lot of material collected by Dr. Brown.
I don't know of any sound recordings of her singing, but this page (click) says Brown's recordings are at the Duke University Library. -Joe Offer-
