Subject: RE: Origins: Child Ballads: US Versions Part 2
Have you got all the Davis versions mentioned in all 3 volumes? 8 in FS of Va. 6 in Trad Ball of Va 6 in More Trad Ball of Va.
I realise that some of these are duplicated but I could check for you if necessary.
E & C O Moore, Ball &FS of the Southwest p47 'Love Henry' John Younger, Tulsa, 11v+tune + 2 other fragmentary versions one with tune.
Texas Folk Songs, Wm A Owens p16 has Bernice Kitchens,Blossom, Texas, 1938, 7v + tune.
A C Morris FS of Florida p263 has Mrs G A Griffin, Newberry. 5v + Tune.
Creighton and Senior, Trad Songs from NS p36 has the Mrs Edward Gallagher version which you appear to have, but this is nfollowe by another version with 16v from Jack Anderson, of Roman Valley.
