Emma Overd (née Weaver; 10 October 1838 – 21 June 1928) was an English folk-singer from Somerset.

[2] Sharp had already met local singers Lucy White and Louie Hooper.

[4] Overd met Cecil Sharp and is reputed to have said Lor, girls, here's my beau come at last!

[1] After 1909 she was given an old age pension which allowed her to buy a beer each week at Langport's Railway Hotel where she would frequently sing.

Overd died a widow in Langport in 1928 and she was buried in Curry Rivel but the precise location is unknown.
