(Alt. #2) - Hayes Shepherd: Peddler and His Wife - Ditto: Hard for to Love - Bill Shepherd: Bound Steel Blues - Ditto: Aunt Jane Blues Liner Notes: Reportedly a 64-page hardcover book (not included with review copy) Pros: Dock Boggs was one of the very best early practitioners of an extremely intense banjo/vocal style typical of the minefields of western Virginia and Eastern Kentucky. These reissues catch him at the height of his vocal powers. Cons: Since the depression cut Dock's recording career short, there's not really a full CD's worth available of his early recordings. The Shepherd cuts, while interesting, are of low audio quality, to put it mildly. Rating: * * * (3 of a possible 4 stars) Dock Boggs (1898-1971), of Norton, VA, was born into hard times, and never got out of them. His haunted voice and his intense approach to hill music reflected that fact. He was a precise representative of the mountain folk of his time, the exact poor white equivalent of the African-American blues that were prevalent then. Like a number of influential white mountaineers, he picked up lots of his songs from that same black wellspring. He traveled to New York in the late 1920s and recorded a number of sides for Brunswick. Shortly after that, he went to Chicago and cut some sides for a label called "The Lonesome Ace by Lyle Lofgren Without A Yodel" (the proprietor did not allow yodeling on his records). Then the depression hit, and Dock's hope for a career as an entertainer sank into forty years of labor in the coal mines of East Kentucky, where he had worked since he. was a child. He would have been completely forgotten, except for two cuts on the "Folkways Anthology of American Folk Music" (recently reissued, fortunately, by Smithsonian/Folkways). Mike Seeger rediscovered him in the 1960s (still living in Norton), brought him on tour through the northern states, and recorded him on several LPs that we may hope will soon be reissued as CDs by Smithsonian/Folkways. The coal dust had attacked his lungs, but he was still able to record several astoundingly great pieces for that series. The present offering of his complete early recordings (produced by John Fahey) is a scholarly effort, in the sense that alternate takes are presented as well as tho6se that were originally released. They will demonstrate to you why the record coi-npanies used the takes that they did. As a result, you will also get the urge to ski p over the less-intense refused recordings. The last four numbers were performed by Dock's neighbors, Hayes and Bill Shepherd, who have vocal styles very much in common with him, but were recorded separately, for Vocalion. Their recordings are very rare - only one copy, for example, has ever been found of "The Peddler and His Wife." Unfortunately, the owner of that record enjoyed it a lot, so it is very scratchy. Still, Dock is an American Treasure, and you should listen to him, both as a young man (represented here) and in his dotage (on the forthcoming? Smithsonian/17olkways releases). This data from the Magazine of the Minnesota Blue Grass & Old Time Music Association. Now can some one provide a few Boggs connections?

I'm wondering if some of us Boggs who can't seem to make a connection to James Boggs of Scotland/Ireland, might be a line from a brother or later immigrant Boggs. Does anyone seem to find this a possibility in their line? Also in the book "Surnames of Scotland" there was I believe a listing for Boggs in the 15 or 1600's in Scotland, I think it may have been Midlothian or dumfreeshire, anyway...One was a "janitor of the gate of the city...and there was anotherr reference to Boggs there. Some were spelled Bogs and another , Boggs. This would be before James Boggs listed in so many lists... the Livingstone Boggs. Has anyone else seen or familiar with the book about which I speak. I read in one e-mail somewhere that someone stated that this book was not reliable, does anyone else know of this? Much thanks, Edward Boggs

This is what I found. James Boggs married Jane Sharp in 1735 in Chester Co, Pa. But that can't be right if James was born in 1725. Then there is a Harriett Walkup and James Boggs married June 28, 1824 in Greenbrier Co. Va. None of the other names are listed. >>From: "John A.

He is now with Tampa Bay. I think I read once that he was born in NC. I think he grew up in FL.

Do you have a listing for Callie Woods and ? Boggs. I do not know where the marriage took place but my grandmother Mary Francis Boggs was born to this couple in 1879 or 1880 in the state of Arkansas.

The book is a very simple book. It dosn't have alot of names but some. Also, the parents names are not listed, so I can't look them up. But I will try to help for the date and the spouses first names if you don't have them. _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.

It don't have every Boggs marriage listed just some. Yes it's printed in Ohio, you may know which book I'm talking about now. My father-in-law ordered one for Buckleys and it didn't have the marriages list in that one. Right, I don't think every one is related. It has alot of names but NOT all. It has the addresses of I'm think all the Boggs in the world in it (unless your a Boggs who is married with a different last name now) at the present time of printing. There are about 20 pages of marriages, with about 100 names on a page. So maybe I can help someone. >From: [email protected] (Edward Boggs) >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [BOGGS-L] Boggs Marriages >Date: Sun, 11 Apr 1999 22:31:29 -0400 (EDT) > >Is this book possibly a "list" book of every boggs, printed in Ohio?

Thought I read once that Wade was from Nebraska or Missouri. Guess it'd be easy enough to find that fact on the web.

Anything on Joseph A. (or H.) Boggs who married Margaret Ballard & Drucilla Pittman? Thanks, Caroline [email protected]

Hello, I am new to the list and to genealogical searches. I have lived in Wyoming since 1956. My father was from Hershey Nebraska I have traced my g g g grandfater (through Family Bibles & recollections of family members), Daniel Boggs to North Bend, Dodge County NE. b. 2-8-1838 Greenbriar Co., VA; d. 9-16-1902, North Bend, NE; m. Martha F. Black 7-28-1859, Rockbridge Co. VA His parents: Stepen and Jane Boggs her parents: Jason and Cassandra Black The only child I know of is William Howard Boggs, b. 8-16-1863, Lynchburg VA; d. 7-3-1923, but there were certainly other children. I will gladly share any information. *********************************************************** Willie Boggs Rawlins, WY Adults are just kids who owe money! email at [email protected] http://w3.trib.com/~wboggs/index.html ***********************************************************

The Baseball Player, used to be with the Red Sox. don't remember who he's with now. Haven't kept up with that.

Hello list. I have just figured out I have a book that has Boggs marriages in it from 1600 to 1900. Not all but alot. I just pulled it off my shelf and thought I would look for the Family Crest. It's in there, plus some marriages like I said from 1600 to 1900. Most are in the 1800's. There are also some Boggs Immigrants listed but just a few. I'll just post them later. No James or Hugh is listed. So if anyone needs to see when their Boggs ancestors got married let me know I'll look them up. Also if anyone wants a scan of then Family Crest let me know and I'll download it to you. Let me know if anyone needs anything Grace O.
