Morris Norton: was Evelyn Ramsey’s father.  A singer and mouth-bow player - who also played the fiddle and banjo - he was rather frail when I met him and only managed to sing me short songs or fragments of once longer ballads.  I also tried to record some of his mouth-bow tunes, but, sadly, with only limited success.
