<hr />
<div>William Alexander Barrett was born in Hackney, London in 1834. Having been a chorister at St. Paul's Cathedral, from 1846- 49, he became a professional musician, author and journalist. He gained a B.Mus at Oxford in 1871 and became Vicar-Choral at St. Paul's in 1876. He was appointed as an Inspector of Music in Government Training Colleges 1n 1881. As a journalist, he was music critic for the Morning Post and Editor of the Musical Times. He published books on "English Glee and Madrigal Writers", "English Church Composers."<br />
<br />
Following an appeal by Andrew Lang, the folklorist, he asked for folksongs, or "quaint songs" from the readers of the Musical Times. It was the responses, together with songs he noted during the 1870s and 1880s that provided the material for his book of "English Folksongs", published in 1890. It is notable for including songs from urban as well as rural locations.<br />
<br />
Barrett was taken ill with influenza in 1891 and having apparently recovered, died soon afterwards from "apoplexy". Had he lived, his contribution to the folksong revival might have been much more significant. A further account of his life and work is on the Traditional Song Forum website: https://tradsong.org/the-collectors</div>Ruairidh Greighttps://folkopedia.info/index.php?title=Joseph_Taylor&diff=14463Joseph Taylor2021-02-24T15:28:32Z<p>Ruairidh Greig: Complete new article about Joseph Taylor added</p>
<hr />
<div> Joseph Taylor was born at Binbrook in the Lincolnshire Wolds on the 10th December 1833, second son of James Taylor and Mary Ann Smith of Barnoldby-Le-Beck. James and his elder brother John moved to Binbrook in the 1820s from Fotherby near Louth. Binbrook was an unusual place, an “open” village in an area of “closed” villages where most of the land and property were owned by a single estate. It was for this reason that it was home to the seasonal labour force needed by the large local farms at certain times in the farming year. Joseph’s father, James, was an agricultural labourer. The National School was not opened until 1843 and so it is unlikely that Joseph would have had formal education beyond that which was offered by the local Sunday school.<br />
<br />
One consequence of being an “open” village was that Binbrook had its own hiring fair, the “Stattis” or Statute fair at which local farmers would select their labourers. Joseph’s early working life in the area was as an agricultural labourer. In 1851 he was one of 12 labourers employed by John Fieldsend on his farm at Orford, a hamlet north of Binbrook. At the age of 17, he was already taking an interest in music. According to Marion Hudson, his granddaughter, in her unpublished biography , Joseph Taylor would often walk to Grimsby and back, a round trip of about 20 miles, to attend a concert. He was also learning songs from gypsies who used to come and camp in the chalk pits that dotted the landscape.<br />
<br />
That he was learning songs at this time is confirmed by an anecdote noted by Percy Grainger. When his Joseph Taylor’s mother asked what his new-born brother should be called, he replied:<br />
“Christen him Bold William Taylor’, this being the title of the newest addition to his repertoire of ‘ballets’ (as they are called by the rural singers) …and his advice was followed.” <br />
His brother William was born in 1853, when Joseph was 19 years old. It was also a time in his life when he spent three months in prison at the Louth House of Correction, convicted for stealing wheat cake and powder to feed to the horses in his charge, from his employer, Binbrook farmer William Croft.<br />
<br />
The turning point in Joseph Taylor’s life may well have been his marriage in 1856 to Eliza Hill from Huttoft on the Lincolnshire coast, six years older than him. They settled in Ranters’ Row in Binbrook, where their first two children were born. It was in 1863 that the family moved to Saxby All Saints, a pretty little village on the western slope of the Wolds, between Brigg and Barton on Humber. There he worked and trained as a carpenter and joiner for Mr Dudding, an independent tradesman who worked mainly for the Hope-Barton family, owners of the village. Here the Taylors had the rest of their family of seven children. Joseph’s love of singing found an outlet in the church choir, to which he belonged for 45 years.<br />
<br />
In 1875 he joined the Hope-Barton estate, initially as a woodman. From this job he was subsequently promoted to Under-Steward. He also became Parish Clerk in 1874. His duties in this role included winding the church clock, grave-digging, collecting Church rate from cottagers and the all-important task of responding “Amen” in Services. <br />
The sixth North Lincolnshire Musical Competition was held in the Corn Exchange at Brigg in April 1905. For the first time it included a folksong section, offering a prize for “the best unpublished old Lincolnshire folk-song or plough-song” . The judge, Frank Kidson, awarded him the prize for the best song for Creeping Jane. The subsequent contact at the festival with Percy Grainger led to the phonograph and commercial recordings that continue to delight and inform later generations of singers far beyond his native county’s borders.<br />
<br />
Saxby All Saints was a musical village. In addition to the church choir in which Joseph Taylor sang, the village had a choral society, which, for many years took part in local competitions. His children, James, John, Annie and Mary Ann were all singers. So when Gervase Elwes, a nationally known tenor, his wife Winifred and her brother Everard Fielding wanted to gather support for the first North Lincolnshire Music Festival in 1900, Saxby was an obvious point of call. The organisers initially cycled round the area training village choirs and then acquired a motor-bike, behind which Lady Winifred was towed on her push-bike. <br />
Winifred Elwes gives the credit for introducing the folksong section in the 1905 Festival to Percy Grainger and her brother Everard, “who had become infected by Mr Cecil Sharpe’s (sic) enthusiasm”. <br />
<br />
It was after the competition that Percy Grainger noted the tune to “Brigg Fair” from him, which was subsequently published in the Folk Song Society Journal. Grainger returned to Brigg in September 1905 when he spent a week collecting songs with Lady Elwes’ sons.<br />
<br />
At the 1906 Festival, Joseph Taylor was again awarded first prize, but this time he had to share it with George Gouldthorpe of Goxhill:<br />
“The results were of such interest that the judge, Miss Lucy Broadwood, felt justified in awarding eight prizes. Mr G. Gouldthorpe sang a ballad entitled “Six Dukes”, which from internal evidence must be over 450 years old, and has not yet, as far as is known, been published. “Brigg Fair” and a beautiful tune to “William Taylor” obtained the next prize for Mr Joseph Taylor”. <br />
<br />
Considering the success of the folksong section in the 1905 and 1906 North Lincolnshire Music Festivals, and the local and national interest it attracted, it may seem surprising that it did not continue in subsequent years. However, there was no Festival in 1907. It was cancelled following the death of Gervase Elwes’ mother, Mrs Cary-Elwes. Gervase and Winifred then moved to Billing Hall in Northamptonshire where the family also owned an estate.<br />
<br />
Percy Grainger’s link with the Taylor family did continue, however. Joseph Taylor went to Grainger’s home in Chelsea on more than one occasion. One of these visits was in March 1908 when he went to the first performance of Delius’ English Rhapsody “Brigg Fair”. Marion Hudson was keen to deny the legend that Joseph Taylor got up and sang during the concert. <br />
<br />
In June and July 1908 Joseph Taylor recorded nine of his songs for the Gramophone Company, the first commercially issued recordings of an English folksinger. The Gramophone Company not only gave him a set of the records, but also a gramophone on which to play them.<br />
<br />
Joseph Taylor’s new-found status as a concert performer and recording artist did not last long, for within two years he was dead. He suffered a great personal loss when his wife, Eliza, died in November 1909. <br />
The following May, five years after his first appearance at the North Lincolnshire, he was involved in an accident in which he was thrown from a pony and trap. He survived but died soon after, probably from a heart attack.<br />
So ended the life of the first and, arguably, still the finest commercially recorded English folksinger. He was buried in Saxby churchyard next to his wife and son, Joseph, near to the family plot of the Hope-Barton family, whom he had served for so many years.<br />

Another article on Joseph Taylor is at [http://www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~zierke/joseph.taylor/ Joseph Taylor web page] but note that there is at least one factual error on the site.<br />
<br />
''The linked article is interesting but contains an inaccuracy since it refers to Percy Grainger visiting Lincolnshire in 1905 with Lucy Broadwood. In fact she did not attend the first Folk Song competition there in that year, but actually attended the second one , at which she was a judge of the Folk Song Competition, in the following year, and carried out a joint collecting trip with Grainger at that time , 1906. (Taylor, incidentally, did not win the competition that year.) ''<br />

<hr />
<div>Joshua Burnett was born in Barnsley in 1808. Although his birth is not recorded on the International Genealogical Index, this date is consistently given in Census returns from 1851 to 1871. The next record of his existence is his marriage, on 22nd August 1833, to Sarah Luker at Worsborough, which lies a few miles south of Barnsley. By the time the 1841 census was taken, they had four children and were living at Worsborough Common. Joshua’s occupation at the time is given as “weaver”.<br />
<br />
A family tragedy is recorded by the Sheffield and Rotherham Independent in 1847. The Burnett’s third son, three-year-old Joshua, whilst in the care of a sibling, dropped asleep and fell in the fire and was fatally burnt. His Mother was out, hoping to borrow a shilling to buy food, the family being in great distress due to the lack of work.<br />
By 1851, the date of the next Census, Joshua had moved with his wife and five children to Gawber, on the north-west side of Barnsley. His occupation is given as “linen weaver.” His wife, Sarah, died in 1855, and the death of another daughter, Esther, is recorded in 1863. Joshua stayed in the same area, eventually living with his youngest daughter, Sarah and her family, in Pogmoor. He died, aged 80, in 1889.<br />
<br />
The manuscript is unusual, in that includes a high proportion of hornpipes (77%), with only a handful of jigs, reels and other dances, which are much more common in other contemporary collections. It could be that this is one of a series of books kept by Burnett, and that others might contain more tunes of other types. It could also be that he specialised in playing hornpipes. If, as a poor man, he had to supplement his meagre income as a hand-loom weaver by playing his fiddle in local public houses, then hornpipes would be a suitable choice. It is also possible that he accompanied a step or clog dancer, or even played and danced at the same time. There are also an unusually large proportion of the tunes in keys other than “D” and “G,” the most popular keys in tune manuscripts, particularly those associated with fiddle players. The frequent setting of tunes in “A,””F,” and especially “Bb,” suggest that Burnett was not only a very capable musician but also that he played in a group with other instruments, such as flutes, clarinets and bassoons, possibly in a church band. A printed music book of hymns was also kept with the fiddle, which may support this theory.<br />
<br />
No date is given in the manuscript. Internal evidence from the tune titles suggests that it may date from the 1830s: after Waterloo (1815) and the Great Reform Act (1830), during the reign of King William IV (1830-1837).<br />

<hr />
<div>The thrust of this section is to identify what we might call 'traditional' singers. These are distinct from the singers who have learned via the folk revival initiated in the 1950s and continuing today. <br />
<br />
Which singers should go in this category? That's open to discussion. The starting point is the era of recording, ie. those singers who sang into the cylinder machines of the early collectors, followed by the early reel-to-reel tape machines and then the newer technologies, probably as far as the turn of the millenium. What we include before and after that is open to discussion and interpretation of what constitutes a 'traditional singer'<br />
<br />
They are more likely to have learned their songs within the family or the community rather than off recordings but even this factor is fraught with difficulty. Probably the best approach is to take a stab at it and accept the flaws.<br />
<br />
Classifying singers by County is probably as good an approach as any. That's often how the collectors did it. <br />
<br />
But some of the Counties have changed! Let's include them anyway, for a while at least!<br />

<hr />
<div>Eldest son of Lincolnshire landowner William Dixon (1756-1824), Thomas John was born in 1785 at Holton Hall, Holton-le-Moor, a few miles north of Market Rasen. He took over the running of the estate after his father’s death, extending it from 3,000 acres to over 5,000 in 1870. He was a prosperous and influential country gentleman, who served as High Sherrif for the county in 1862, although the vicar of nearby Caistor, in a letter to Lord Brownlow, considered him “not suitably educated for magisterial duties.”<br />
The family papers were deposited in the Lincolnshire Archives in 1972-3. The extensive collection of deeds, account books, diaries etc. give a clear picture of estate and county history during the period. Dixon 21/1 includes 8 musical items from various family members, including his daughter Annie. The first two are Thomas John’s personal music books, dating from 1798, when he was 14 years of age. They may well have been used as part of his musical education. The first, TJD.1-39 mentions the clarinet and the second, TJD.40-74 includes instructions for learning to play the violin. Some titles are duplicated between books. A range of tune types are included, from quick steps to reels, song airs to jigs and marches. Fourteen of the 74 tunes are also found in the Gibbons MS.</div>Ruairidh Greighttps://folkopedia.info/index.php?title=Eliza_Tennyson_Ms&diff=14393Eliza Tennyson Ms2021-02-10T13:14:35Z<p>Ruairidh Greig: </p>
<hr />
<div>[http://archive.org/details/ElizaTennysonMusicManuscriptBook1822 ABC copy] by Ruairidh Greig at Internet Archive<br />
<br />
The Tennyson family archive is currently held at Lincoln Central Library and contains the personal library collections of a number of members of the Tennyson family.<br />
<br />
There are two manuscript of interest to tune detectives along with a couple of boxes of various musical scores, including a large number of musical settings of Alfred Tennyson's poetry.<br />
<br />
The Eliza Tennyson MS is dated 1822 and is the usual small oblong size and shape of the other handwritten MS generally seen.<br />
Its date would mean that Eliza (Alfred's mother Elizabeth) would have been living at Somersby in Lincs at the time it was written. The book contains about 24 pieces, mostly written in treble clef although a few have treble and bass clef parts. They are mostly just tunes, although there are a few songs. <br />
<br />
<br />
The second Ms is a similar small handwritten MS with the following on the title<br />
page - "Julia and Clara Tennyson 16th Oct 1826". It was probably a practice book connected with the piano as all the pieces are written in treble and bass clef parts. It contains 11 pieces, including three songs, a Beethoven piece, a piece for harp and a few miscellaneous tunes.<br />
Many pieces were untitled or the handwriting is illegible.<br />

<div>Classifying singers by County is probably as good an approach as any. That's often how the collectors did it. <br />
<br />
But some of the Counties have changed! Let's include them anyway, for a while at least!<br />
<br />
Which singers should go in this category? That's open to discussion. Hit the discussion tab above, read what others say and express your own opinion.<br />

<hr />
<div>This is a list of what are often referred to as Fiddler's Tunebooks, though they were sometimes evidently written by flute players or other instrumentalists. As well as dance tunes, they often contain psalms, hymns, songs and militia tunes. Though many of these MSS may be inaccessible to the general reader, their presence on the list will give some flavour of what was once out there. <br />
Some minor MSS have been omitted as being based on uncertain information, or containing too few dance tunes. Most of the items are 18th/19thC, though a historically significant 20thC MS may occasionally merit inclusion.<br />
It is based on the database of historical dance tune manuscripts compiled for the [[Village Music Project]]. It represents, in September 2012, the majority of the significant manuscripts containing a useful number of dance tunes, on record as existing somewhere, but it is admittedly at this time weighted towards English manuscripts (even when the MS presently resides elsewhere). We hope to see more lines added. Feel free to add information, links, etc.<br />

<hr />
<div>This list is based on the database compiled for the Village Music Project. It represents, in February 2012, the majority of the significant manuscripts containing a useful number of dance tunes, on record as existing somewhere, but it is admittedly at this time weighted towards English manuscripts (even when the MS presently resides elsewhere). Some have been omitted as being based on uncertain information, or containing too few dance tunes. We hope to see more lines added. Feel free to add information, links, etc.<br />

<div>Joshua Gibbons was a papermaker in the village of Tealby, on the western edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, where the River Rase provided power for several paper mills. He was also a musician; in 1969 his tunebook was noticed on display at Normanby Hall by Sue Cave, who played violin with the Grimsby group "Broadside". Since then the manuscript has been moved to the North East Lincolnshire Archives at Town Hall Square, Grimsby. Most of the manuscript was published by Peter Sumner in 1997 as "Lincolnshire Collections, Volume 1, The Joshua Gibbons Manuscript" (ISBN 0-9530117). The tunes are not presented in manuscript order, but are grouped, on dubious evidence, in "sets" containing tunes in different times and keys. The original pitches are given, but tunes are transposed into "user-friendly" keys. 186 of the 208 items are included.<br />
<br />
Joshua Gibbons was born in 1778 and died in 1871. Little is known about his musical life except for evidence from the manuscript, which is dated 1823. Sumner assumes he was a fiddle player, but the only instruments mentioned in the MS are the clarinet and "recorda" (sic). A number of titles make reference to Rasen band, so he may have played with them in nearby Market Rasen. Reference is also made to tunes from Louth and Caistor, so he may have had contact with groups in those places. Many of the tunes are arranged in two or three parts, suggesting that Gibbons played regularly with other musicians. The complete manuscript has recently been converted into .abc notation and is available on the Village Music Project website.[http://www.village-music-project.org.uk/]<br />

<div>[[Tune Manuscripts List]]<br />
<br />
Joshua Gibbons was a papermaker in the village of Tealby, on the western edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, where the River Rase provided power for several paper mills. He was also a musician; in 1969 his tunebook was noticed on display at Normanby Hall by Sue Cave, who played violin with the Grimsby group "Broadside". Since then the manuscript has been moved to the North East Lincolnshire Archives at Town Hall Square, Grimsby. Most of the manuscript was published by Peter Sumner in 1997 as "Lincolnshire Collections, Volume 1, The Joshua Gibbons Manuscript" (ISBN 0-9530117). The tunes are not presented in manuscript order, but are grouped, on dubious evidence, in "sets" containing tunes in different times and keys. The original pitches are given, but tunes are transposed into "user-friendly" keys. 186 of the 208 items are included.<br />
<br />
Joshua Gibbons was born in 1778 and died in 1871. Little is known about his musical life except for evidence from the manuscript, which is dated 1823. Sumner assumes he was a fiddle player, but the only instruments mentioned in the MS are the clarinet and "recorda" (sic). A number of titles make reference to Rasen band, so he may have played with them in nearby Market Rasen. Reference is also made to tunes from Louth and Caistor, so he may have had contact with groups in those places. Many of the tunes are arranged in two or three parts, suggesting that Gibbons played regularly with other musicians. The complete manuscript has been converted into .abc notation and is available on the Village Music Project website.[http://www.village-music-project.org.uk/]<br />

<div>George Wray, of Barton on Humber, was one of Percy Grainger’s main informants in his North [[Lincolnshire]] folksong collecting trips in 1905- 1908. Three of his songs were transcribed in great detail and included in Grainger’s ground-breaking article in the Journal of the Folk Song Society, “Collecting with Phonograph.” ''(Vol.3, no.12 (May 1908) pp.147-242)'' In addition to the meticulous transcriptions of his phonograph cylinder recordings, Grainger included a great deal of contextual detail, including biographical information about the major singers; Joseph Taylor, George Gouldthorpe and George Wray himself.<br />
<br />
"A tough,... worldly and prosperously coloured personality. He was born at Barrow-on-Humber, and was eighty years old when he sang to me in 1906. From the age of eight to seventeen he worked in a brickyard, after which he went to sea as a cook and steward for some years, learning some of his songs aboard ship. After that he again worked at a brickyard for forty years; and later on again, he sold coals, taking them to Barton, Barrow, Goxhill etc., in his own ship,and also carrying them round on his back...as much as twenty tons in a day. He carried coals till he was aged seventy-three and then he “give over”... He used to be a great dancer. He took a prize (a fine silver pencil) for dancing in a competition at Barton, at the age of fifty-four; performing to the accompaniment of a fiddle, which he considers better than anything to dance to." ''Op.cit. p.165-166''<br />
<br />
Some of the information given by Grainger is unreliable. He says that Wray was born at Barrow on Humber, whereas the singer consistently cites Brigg as his birthplace in census returns. He also omits to mention that Wray was once a publican, at the Railway Inn in Albert Street, Brigg. In Bob Thomson's introductory notes to the 1972 LP “Unto Brigg Fair”''(Leader Records LEA 4050 p.4)'' he is said to have gone to sea "with a Mr Cross at Appleby", presumably based on Grainger’s notes. Appleby is a small inland village near Scunthorpe and the only Mr Cross listed in the local censuses was the long-serving vicar. There is also doubt about his age. Grainger says that he was eighty years old when he sang to him in 1906. According to the census returns from 1851 to 1901, he was born in about 1829. This is confirmed by the burial register, which gives his age as eighty-four when he died, in 1913 ''(Barton St. Peter's, no.948, 22nd April 1913)''. Either Grainger was less accurate in his note-taking than in his musical transcription, or Wray chose to mislead him.<br />
<br />
Despite these inaccuracies, much valuable contextual detail is included. Grainger records that Wray was strongly opposed to the habit of singing in church and chapel choirs, believing that it had destroyed folk-song singing. He was also against piano accompaniment. He thought the fiddle was the finest instrument to dance to (his brother was a left-handed fiddler).<br />
<br />
Grainger also includes details of George Wray’s singing style:<br />
“His style is more a triumph of personal characteristics than of abstract beauty.” ''(JFSS, op.cit. p.166)'' <br />
He further describes how Wray uses “swift touches of swagger,” adds meaningless syllables and has a hollow vowel-sound perhaps due to his lack of teeth. He adds that his singing employs “pattering, bubbling, jerky, restless quick and briskly energetic effects.” ''(ibid)'' He also commented on Wray’s excellent memory, noting that he recalled ninety-four verses in the sixteen songs he recorded, which was probably not his complete repertoire.<br />
<br />
The songs noted by Grainger were:<br />
<br />
#[[Lord Melbourne]] Roud 233<br />
#[[Lowlands Low (Golden Vanity)]] Roud 122<br />
#[[The Coach Going to London]] Roud 1630<br />
#[[Nelson's Monument]] Roud 1522<br />
#[[When I’ve Money]] Roud 23065<br />
#[[Lord Bateman]] Roud 40 Child 53<br />
#[[The Sheffield Highwayman]] Roud 490 <br />
#[[The Indian Lass]] Roud 2326<br />
#[[The Bonny Bunch of Roses]] Roud 664 <br />
#[[The American Stranger]] Roud 1081<br />
#[[It’s of An Old Miser]] Roud 548<br />
#[[’Merican Frigate (Paul Jones)]] Roud 967<br />
#[[Captain Ward]] Roud 244 Child 287<br />
#[[Riding Down to Portsmouth]] Roud 1534<br />
#[[Twenty-First of October]] Roud 522<br />
#[[Spurn Point]] Roud 599<br />
According to Thomson in his ''Unto Brigg Fair'' notes, he is also believed to have known:<br />
#[[Robin Hood]]<br />
#[[The Barley Rakings]]<br />
#[[Creeping Jane]]<br />
#[[Edwin and Emma]]<br />
#[[Young Tyler]]<br />

Some of the information given by Grainger is unreliable. He says that Wray was born at Barrow on Humber, whereas the singer consistently cites Brigg as his birthplace in census returns. He also omits to mention that Wray was once a publican, at the Railway Inn in Albert Street, Brigg. In Bob Thomson's introductory notes to the 1972 LP “Unto Brigg Fair”''(Leader Records LEA 4050 p.4)'' he is said to have gone to sea "with a Mr Cross at Appleby", presumably based on Grainger’s notes. Appleby is a small inland village near Scunthorpe and the only Mr Cross listed in the local censuses was the long-serving vicar. There is also doubt about his age. Grainger says that he was eighty years old when he sang to him in 1906. According to the census returns from 1851 to 1901, he was born in about 1829. This is confirmed by the burial register, which gives his age as eighty-four when he died, in 1913 ''(Barton St. Peter's, no.948, 22nd April 1913)''. Either Grainger was less accurate in his note-taking than in his musical transcription, or Wray chose to mislead him.<br />
<br />
Despite these inaccuracies, much valuable contextual detail is included. Grainger records that Wray was strongly opposed to the habit of singing in church and chapel choirs, believing that it had destroyed folk-song singing. He was also against piano accompaniment. He thought the fiddle was the finest instrument to dance to (his brother was a left-handed fiddler).<br />
<br />
Grainger also includes details of George Wray’s singing style:<br />
“His style is more a triumph of personal characteristics than of abstract beauty.” ''(JFSS, op.cit. p.166)'' <br />
He further describes how Wray uses “swift touches of swagger,” adds meaningless syllables and has a hollow vowel-sound perhaps due to his lack of teeth. He adds that his singing employs “pattering, bubbling, jerky, restless quick and briskly energetic effects.” ''(ibid)'' He also commented on Wray’s excellent memory, noting that he recalled ninety-four verses in the sixteen songs he recorded, which was probably not his complete repertoire.<br />
<br />
The songs noted by Grainger were:<br />
<br />
#[[Lord Melbourne]]<br />
#[[Lowlands Low (Golden Vanity)]]<br />
#[[The Coach Going to London]]<br />

<div>George Wray, of Barton on Humber, was one of Percy Grainger’s main informants in his North [[Lincolnshire]] folksong collecting trips in 1905- 1908. Three of his songs were transcribed in great detail and included in Grainger’s ground-breaking article in the Journal of the Folk Song Society, “Collecting with Phonograph.” ''(Vol.3, no.12 (May 1908) pp.147-242)'' In addition to the meticulous transcriptions of his phonograph cylinder recordings, Grainger included a great deal of contextual detail, including biographical information about the major singers; Joseph Taylor, George Gouldthorpe and George Wray himself.<br />
<br />
"A tough,... worldly and prosperously coloured personality. He was born at Barrow-on-Humber, and was eighty years old when he sang to me in 1906. From the age of eight to seventeen he worked in a brickyard, after which he went to sea as a cook and steward for some years, learning some of his songs aboard ship. After that he again worked at a brickyard for forty years; and later on again, he sold coals, taking them to Barton, Barrow, Goxhill etc., in his own ship,and also carrying them round on his back...as much as twenty tons in a day. He carried coals till he was aged seventy-three and then he “give over”... He used to be a great dancer. He took a prize (a fine silver pencil) for dancing in a competition at Barton, at the age of fifty-four; performing to the accompaniment of a fiddle, which he considers better than anything to dance to."

Grainger records that Wray was strongly opposed to the habit of singing in church and chapel choirs, believing that it had destroyed folk-song singing. He was also against piano accompaniment. He thought the fiddle was the finest instrument to dance to (his brother was a left-handed fiddler).<br />
<br />
Grainger also includes details of George Wray’s singing style:<br />
“His style is more a triumph of personal characteristics than of abstract beauty.” ''(JFSS, op.cit. p.166)'' <br />
He further describes how Wray uses “swift touches of swagger,” adds meaningless syllables and has a hollow vowel-sound perhaps due to his lack of teeth. He adds that his singing employs “pattering, bubbling, jerky, restless quick and briskly energetic effects.” ''(ibid)'' He also commented on Wray’s excellent memory, noting that he recalled ninety-four verses in the sixteen songs he recorded, which was probably not his complete repertoire.<br />
<br />
The songs noted by Grainger were:<br />
<br />
#[[Lord Melbourne]]<br />
#[[Lowlands Low (Golden Vanity)]]<br />
#[[The Coach Going to London]]<br />

<hr />
<div>George Wray, of Barton on Humber, was one of Percy Grainger’s main informants in his North [[Lincolnshire]] folksong collecting trips in 1905- 1908. Three of his songs were transcribed in great detail and included in Grainger’s ground-breaking article in the Journal of the Folk Song Society, “Collecting with Phonograph.” ''(Vol.3, no.12 (May 1908)pp.165-166)'' In addition to the meticulous transcriptions of his phonograph cylinder recordings, Grainger included a great deal of contextual detail, including biographical information about the major singers; Joseph Taylor, George Gouldthorpe and George Wray himself.<br />
<br />
"A tough,... worldly and prosperously coloured personality. He was born at Barrow-on-Humber, and was eighty years old when he sang to me in 1906. From the age of eight to seventeen he worked in a brickyard, after which he went to sea as a cook and steward for some years, learning some of his songs aboard ship. After that he again worked at a brickyard for forty years; and later on again, he sold coals, taking them to Barton, Barrow, Goxhill etc., in his own ship,and also carrying them round on his back...as much as twenty tons in a day. he carried coals till he was aged seventy-three and then he “give over”... He used to be a great dancer. He took a prize (a fine silver pencil) for dancing in a competition at Barton, at the age of fifty-four; performing to the accompaniment of a fiddle, which he considers 2better than anything to dance to""<br />
<br />
Some of the information given by Grainger is unreliable. He says that Wray was born at Barrow on Humber, whereas the singer consistently cites Brigg as his birthplace in census returns. He also omits to mention that Wray was once a publican, at the Railway Inn in Albert Street, Brigg. In the introductory notes to the 1972 LP “Unto Brigg Fair”''(op.cit.p.4)'' he is said to have gone to sea with a Mr Cross at Appleby, presumably based on Grainger’s notes. Appleby is a small inland village near Scunthorpe and the only Mr Cross listed in the local censuses was the long-serving vicar. There is also doubt about his age. Grainger says that he was eighty years old when he sang to him in 1906. According to the census returns from 1851 to 1901, he was born in about 1829. This is confirmed by the burial register, which gives his age as eighty-four when he died, in 1913. Either Grainger was less accurate in his note-taking than in his musical transcription, or Wray chose to mislead him.<br />
