    This is not a preview but the epilogue to "The Ballad of Frankie Silver" --Bobby McMillon's story of the 1833 murder of his relative Charlie Silver and the conviction and hanging of Charlie's young wife Frankie.

    I am related to Frankie Stewart Silver too. My family is from Mitchell County and my grandmother still lives on Hwy 80.

    I wasn't sure that it was the same person, but as soon as I heard his voice it was like 45 years just dropped away. Before my family moved away from Lenoir I went to high school with Bobby in 9th and 10th grades, and even then he was beginning to show his interest in the ballads and stories of the region. I can remember more than one occasion when he and some of our mutual friends (not me though; no musical talent) would play together while we were all hanging out.

    Sends a chill up my spine, the beauty of this singing. Thanks so much for sharing. FridayTN, go wank about your lawsuit nonsense somewhere else, nobody is getting rich off of Folkstreamers' videos.
