Songs sung by Maria Butcher

BUTCHER, Maria, Drumavally; wife of John senior (above); recorded in Eddie Butcher’s house 1966, 1969. Maria died later in 1969 in her late sixties. She seemed to have considerable experience of traditional songs, but a certain hoarseness due to poor health made it difficult to appreciate her style properly. Nos 32C and 53 with others, 55 with her husband.
