Seaborn M. Denson (1854-1936) and Thomas J. Denson (1863-1935) were brothers who devoted their lives and gifts to composing and teaching American religious folk music, as embodied in “The Sacred Harp,” over most of the Southland. Remembered as “Uncle Seab” and “Uncle Tom,” they were honored in the summer of 1944, the hundredth anniversary of “The Sacred Harp,” by their families, legions of singers, and other friends in the midst of their field of labor.
