  • Rob Mashburn picking and singing "My Wildwood Flower", He is one of the smoothest singers and pickers that you'll hear. His timing is perfect. He hails from Cherokee County, NC. So sad that he departed this life so soon.
    Robin A. "Rob" Mashburn passed away on March 03, 2000. He was a young man at the age of 57. Everyone referred to him as: Rob The Picker. He is still missed after fifteen (15) years. The obit was posted in The Citizen-Times Newspaper in Asheville, N.C.

      It's been around for at least 161 years. The Carter Family recorded it in 1935. It was composed and published in 1860 by Maud Irving and J.D. Webster. The original title was "Mid The Ringlets" Thank you for the comment. I agree with you that t's the best version.

    I absolutely LOVE this 10/10 version of this beautiful folk song, so glad I just found it on the wonderful CZcams👍. The fiddle and voice harmonies give me goose pimples, totally magnificent, such amazing talent, very well done I'm so impressed and will be buying a CD too for playing in my old car. Y'all need to bring this music to some Scottish/ British/ Irish Music Festivals. Peace, love, respect from Scotland 🤠🙏 👍

    Hi Mary, I've tried to locate some of Rob's family, but without success. I corresponded with the owner/manager of WKRK in Murphy, NC, but he couldn't help. I wanted to obtain more recordings, but so far nothing. After Rob passed away, WKRK in Murphy advertised his recordings that could be purchased by contacting the family. Since then, the family is not known by any of my contacts. Maybe they relocated to another area.

      Thanks for viewing. The Mashburn's apparently arrived from England. The surname spelling was probably Marshbourne or Mashbourne meaning dwelling by a river. Likewise, surnames such as Miller, Farmer, Smith were applied to the type of lifestyle/career or location. Also, in the Appalachian culture, names were recorded by Census takers according to how they were pronounced by the citizens.
