Early folklorists and Yiddish song

Does anyone have any information on folklorists working on Yiddish song
during the nineteenth century? I have notes on published collections
dating back to the beginning of the twentieth century, but I recall that
some earlier printed collections are in the collections of YIVO and the
New York Public Library (though as far as I remember these were from the
1890s). Does anyone know of earlier work?
Would be very grateful for any insights,
A sheynem dank,
Abbi
