Child 120. Robin Hood's Death
In Percy's Folio Manuscript and also printed on seventeenth century broadsides. The story is also told in 'Gest', Child 117. I have only been able to identify one reliable version from oral tradition and that is from the Scotch-Irish family of Miss Martha M Davis of Harrisonburg, Rockingham County, Virginia, from her great-grandmother down. Miss Davis had two other rare RH ballads. Her forebears had come from Maryland and then Pennsylvania.
