Scope and content
Handwritten, typescript, photocopied printed, and photocopied newspaper of songs from Co. Roscommon. These are mostly lyric sheets, but one includes tonic sol-fa and one is written on the back of music manuscript paper, which appears unrelated to the song. This file also includes a card signed "With compliments Michael Fitzmaurice" which is not attached to a song. Mostly transcribed by Nellie Walsh herself, but others sent to her or clipped from newspapers. Some attached to letters addressed to Walsh.
