Well done, Vic!
Jim himself has a lot of very useful information of this sort, particularly concerning Walter Pardon.

In my own area a number of us have set up the Hull Folk Archive and it is deposited in our state of the art History Centre. It comprises all of the hard copy records/ photos etc of Folk Union One, Green Ginger Morris and much more. The recordings are being digitised currently. All of the guests at the club are listed (early 60s onward) and the local Folk magazine for the region 'Folk News' is there with every issue, all indexed. My own recordings from tradition will be deposited once I have shuffled off, but they're all online in the BLSA anyway. Once all the digitisation is complete we have enough cash left in the pot to set up a website.
