Summary
Bentley’s public catalogue represents AFC SR076 (original disc 4-6) as two 1940 sides recorded at Beaver Island. It labels the performer Dominick Gallagher and the catalogued selections as the conclusion of “Roll Her to the Wall,” also called “Captain Wedderburn’s Courtship,” and “Bonny Irish Boy.”
The performer label is linked to Dominick Gallagher as a source-bounded archival connection. The catalogue gives no transcript, biographical identifier, language determination, or documentation of the recording circumstances beyond its place and year label. This entry therefore does not treat the catalogued song names as authoritative titles or make claims about performance, repertoire, transmission, or identity beyond the catalogue.
