A Little About This Song…

Mary Of The Wild Moor first appeared on broadside sheets in England in the early 19th century. It’s a heartbreaking story that spread across Great Britain, Canada and the US with many verses being added or forgotten along the way. Most contemporary versions luckily use the same lyrics and melody.
