B:John Burks music manuscript collection dated 1821
N:Nothing is known of Burks or the provenance of his
N:ms. but it is probable he was from England.
N:His music ms. surfaced in the United States, and had possibly
N:been in the possession of his descendants.
N:Slightly corrected:Burks gave the key signature as 1 flat and
N:consistently noted the ‘C’ notes at the end of phrases as ‘D’ notes.
