Thread Name: Observer's Book of Folk Song in Britain
Subject: RE: Observer's Book of Folk Song in Britain
I knew Fred Woods from his time living in Nantwich and then Crewe in Cheshire and he was a regular at the local folk club in the 1980s.
Classic error in the book was:
Kennedy, Peter (born 1922). Son of Marjory Kennedy-Fraser and nephew of Maud Karpeles....
[This entry was followed by...]
Kennedy-Fraser, Marjorie (1857-1930)
And no mention of Peter's Dad, Douglas.... (and his Mum was Helen Kennedy (nee Karpeles).
His work on Winston Churchill was more sound .. he got his doctorate on his researches from Keele University I think.
