Typed ballad lyrics with tune notations

This series includes a wide range of mostly hand written or typed material. Among these are Wheeler's Kentucky Mountain Folk Song notebook (the original book in which she kept the typed lyrics of the folksongs she collected in the mountains), hand-notated tune transcriptions collected by Ms. Wheeler, handwritten song texts written by Ms. Wheeler and others, a set of loose typewritten song ballads, and both typed and handwritten collection notes. There are also popular folksong collections by musicians other than Ms. Wheeler and clippings related to eastern Kentucky music and African-American "shout" songs.
