Hughie, "The Chantey Cabin" looks like a great resource and I will be ordering several supplies.
Do your notes to the song in your songbook describe where the "old song" came from, and what it looked like before you set to work on it? Was there an "old tune"? Or what tune did you model yours after? If your songbook has those answers, you need not respond here. If not, please share. I might even trade you an "old song" back that you've never run across, with notes.
Oh, and do you know if there were two Blackball lines?
Cheer'ly,
Charlie
