[edit] text

In the last para, who is Child, who sums things up? Martin

Francis James Child was probably the second-greatest collector of English folk songs, behind Cecil Sharp. I'd guess it was him. There are dozens of folk songs about Little Sir Hugh, and I'd be very surprised if Child didn't know several - possibly someone with access to a copy of the Child Ballads can check if any are in there? - Jacob Steel

It might also be mentioned that there is a Catholic saint named Hugh of Lincoln (c. 1135 - 1200) who may at some point need to be disambiguated. Hephaestos

I added a disambig block - which works if we're sure that "little sir hugh" never made it as far as being sainted. Martin

Without doubt, Hugh of Lincoln should go straight to Saint Hugh of Lincoln, not to Little Saint Hugh of Lincoln, since Hugh was the earlier and more important. Hugh is the one compared with whom Little Hugh is 'little'. Anyone from anywhere near Lincoln would think first of St Hugh when Hugh of Lincoln was mentioned, if he ever got round to thinking of Little St Hugh. (RJP 19:26, 1 August 2005 (UTC))

[edit] Steeleye Span

Just wondered it says this is often corrupted to Little Sir Hugh. Do youthink the song of this name by Steeleye Span should be mentioned? It is definitely related to this (see the lyrics at [1] 84.67.16.155 20:08, 20 March 2006 (UTC) (This was me T.A Stevenson but I forgot to log in.
