Hi All, I've just received this. Does anyone have any info? Please include Dayan Goodsir Cullen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on replies. Cheers, Ian -----Original Message----- From: Dayan Goodsir Cullen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 19 July 2001 11:22 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: William Goodsir Dear Mr Brockbank, Just found your Scottish Dance pages - very comprehensive and interesting. I wonder if you can help me with a little research? Have you heard of a William "Willie" Goodsir (1772-1848) - a musician (well known locally as a fiddler) from North Berwick? I gather he was quite famous in his day, but I wonder if any of his works survive, or if any information about him remains? There is a reference to him in a local history (written at the end of the 19th century) that compares Goodsir to Neil Gow, but apart from that I have not found much. Mind you I am on the other side of the world! Anything you know will be of interest to me, even if you can suggest where I might look for further information. May I thank you in anticipation for your help? I should be very grateful for any suggestions you might have. Yours Sincerely, Dayan Goodsir-Cullen Posted to Scots-L - The Traditional Scottish Music & Culture List - To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
