Don-

You did a nice job with "Gosport Nancy." (No. 35 on the list)

Cyril never tracked down who composed that song but he collected it in his songbook Gray Funnel Lines.

Notes from Cyril Tawney:

"Across the harbour from Portsmouth…lies the borough of Gosport, its junior neighbour and the setting for another unique composition. In style and spirit it can rank alongside the best of the old sailing-ship ditties on the same subject. The author was clearly a cut above the usual standard of RN songwriters, yet he (or they) remains anonymous."
