Give, Oh Give Me

Back My Home 

...................................................................... by Ida Ann Wylie

 

 

 
Love,
 
This is the title of a song
 
published by my great grandmother,
 
Ida Ann Edgecomb Wylie. Though it is
 
said that she had  hundreds  of  copies
 
around the house, I've  not  been  able
 
to find one or  anyone  who has one.
 
The  Director  of    the  Boothbay
 
Regional   Historical   Society
 
in Boothbay Harbor, Maine
 
told  me  about  the  song
 
and  said   it   was  a
 
very popular  song
 
and a  real  tear
 
jerker during
 
that great
 
era.
