These are part of a series of recordings made by Helen Creighton at the behest of the Smithsonian. All of these tracks are from the singer Angelo Dornan, who lived in Elgin, NB at the time of recording. He was raised in New Brunswick - but spent most of his life in Saskatchewan, farming. When he was a child, he heard both of his parents singing, and it must have made a deep impression on him, as 60 years later, when he retired back to NB he remembered 125 songs that his parents used to sing when he was a child. Most of the repertoire is from Northern Ireland - as that's where his family came from.
