Hello Ian,
Welcome to Mudcat! And thank you for your post.
On the RCM recording, Edna is listed as Edna Ritchie Baker - was
Floyd Baker her husband ??
Perhaps you can fill-in the genealogy.
Do you know if any of her recordings, other than the Folk-Legacy album, have been made available on CD or CD-r ??? Are there additional
recordings which are not listed above in my post? Can you fill in any further details of the recordings ??
THANKS!
Best wishes, Thomas.
