Addy, Sidney

Addy, Sidney (1848–1933),
English lawyer and folklorist, who published two important pioneer works, Folk Tales and Superstitions (1895) and Household Tales with Other Traditional Remains, Collected in the Counties of York, Lincoln, Derby and Nottingham (1895). In both books he attempted to record oral tales exactly as he heard them, often in dialect, and with information about the teller.
