Lyr Req: Hangman's Beautiful Daughter

Has anyone ever heard of the "Hangman's Beautiful Daughter? This may be a phrase in a song. I'm looking for the lyrics for Sharyn McCrumb's Ballad Series. Have found the Rosewood Casket, Long Black Veil & Pretty Peggy-O so far. Thanks!

I know this phrase as the title of an LP (reissued as CD?) from The Incredible Stringband, arguably one of their best. Wolfgang

Here's an Incredible String Band web site that should tell you more than you'll ever want to know about the "Hangman's Beautiful Daughter" album, which is available on CD:

Also try http://www.mel.dit.csiro.au/~sfy/ISB/ for the incredible string band. One of these two site has a discussion group, and I know that origins of Hangman's beautiful daughter has been discussed there. Maybe it will help
