| Catalog Notes | In verse. Without music, and without statements naming the tunes. This is more likely a collection of poems than of songs. Bouckville, N.Y. was formerly called Johnsville; it was renamed during the construction of the Chenango Canal (1833-1836). Cf. Whitney, L.M., History of Madison Co., 1872, p. 607-608. The American Antiquarian Society has two other titles issued by the Stationer's Company (Bouckville, N.Y.) in which the Stationer's Company imprint statement appears on the wrapper, while the title page imprint statement bears the name of Bouckville publisher Butler Maynard. Maynard moved from Hamilton, Mass. to Bouckville, N.Y. in 1840. Cf. Tuttle, W.H. Names and sketches of the pioneer settlers of Madison Co., N.Y., 1984. In printed wrapper. Wood engraving, p. 12, signed "JH" (i.e., John H. Hall). |
