Bill and Malcolm, this is great stuff. Thank you both for the all th griff. I've checked out the midis of Wise Nora and Nora Creena at JC's site, but haven't researched all of the midis to see if there's one that includes chords. I like the tune, though.

I think you're probably right in that we are unlikely to find out the origins of the name.

Again, many thanks. I'll pass this material on to the interested party
