Thread Name: Origin: Duke of Bedford / Six Lords Went a-Hunting
Subject: RE: DUKE OF BEFORD - INFO PLEASE
Actually the folksong has apparently Bedford but the broadside was on the Duke of Grafton. The article I noted is entitled 'Which Noble Duke'. There's a similar 16th century broadside on a Dukle of Bedford, also in my broadside index. I've now crossed referenced these, but I need about 15 minutes to get the new version loaded.
