This collection comprises manuscripts of 18th and 19th century folk songs along with their musical scores and context. The majority of these items were typescript copies of songs found in manuscript form in informants' homes and in library collections and typescript copies of songs sent to the collection by respondents to newspaper articles and advertisements which she wrote to solicit information on songs. There are also many handwritten songs (mostly lyrics, but some scores as well) and bound manuscripts.
