Thank you: I was aware of that site, but hadn't thought of looking for Harry Lee there. One of the pictures on the site might actually provide a clue, and I shall track down some of the books - no stone left unturned!

Keen to know more about fiddler Harry Lee who was recorded by my friend Ken Stubbs (sadly departed) at Borough Green in 1962 when he (Harry) was "about 60". May be the Harry Lee who was Ambrose Cooper's grandfather and/or the Harry Lee who the gypsiologist Shaw took a photo (with fiddle) of on Epsom Downs on or about Derby Day in 1930; or they may be three different fiddlers of the same name (a far-from-rare occurrence) : there's no real way of searching the records without more details of his immediate ancestry. Can you or anyone else help?
