Historical Notes
Charles Jefferys (1807-1865) was an English music publisher and composer of songs.
Jefferys carried on a London music publishing business. He published A book of beauty for the Queen's boudoir, a Musical Annual (1853, 1854) and seven numbers of Jeffery's Musical Journal in 1864.
He translated Victor Hugo's opera libretto La Esmeralda into English in 1856 and wrote the text for The Gipsy's Vengeance, an English version of Verdi's Il trovatore, performed at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane in 1856.
He wrote the words of several popular songs, including The rose of Allandale, Mary of Argyle, and Jeannett's farewell to Jeannot, and himself composed Rose Atherton, Oh Erin, my country!, and other songs.
