What county in England did a brewess that has a song and jig tune bearing her name live in?
Elsie Marley Elsie Marley (c. 1713–1768) was an alewife (the wife of the landlord, or the licensee of an inn or public house) in Picktree, near Chester-le-Street, County Durham, England. This is close to Harraton Hall, the home of the Lambton family. A song and jig tune bearing her name, popular in her lifetime, are still current locally.
George Barnet Gardiner George Barnet Gardiner (1852–1910) was a Scottish-born folk-song collector who collected songs from traditional singers in Southern England, chiefly in Hampshire, but also in Surrey, Sussex, Somerset and other counties. He collected over 1,400 songs in a six year period between 1904 and his death in 1910.
