Dear All
Apologies to most of you for what will be for many a totally
irrevelant email, but I dont know what department of the University of Leeds
the following
study was done under - geography, sociology, linguistics, or
whatever.
Whilst researching rural shop closures in South Ferriby, a small
village in n lincs, i came across a woman whose husband, now
dead, was the subject of some research in the late 50s/early 60s
by someone from the University of Leeds, looking into the "Old
Lincolnshire dialect". She was quite keen, for sentimantal reasons,
to see if any record of this interview still existed. Unfortunately she
didnt know what dept did this, or if it was PhD research or
whatever.
A long shot I know, after 40 years, but does this ring any bells with
anyone?
