Notes
Stephen Collins Foster (July 4, 1826 – January 13, 1864), was often referred to as the "father of American music". Foster, a prolific writer who penned more than 200 tunes, was primarily known for his parlor and minstrel music. Here are some enjoyable bluesy and jazzy treatments of Steven Foster classics.

I just posted a playlist "Stephen Foster's Women." These are all vocals, and I believe I did not overlap any on your list here. I also like Songs of the Old South.
