Anyone know a site for a lot of Christmas carols (Who wrote them and when)?

Just out of curiosity, who wrote the Christmas carol, "Jingle Bells"? And when did he or she write it?
James Lord Pierpont wrote it and it was copyrighted under the title 'One Horse Open Sleigh' in 1857.





Wikipedia has a page on Christmas Carols with a lot of interesting links to other Christmas Carol sites.
Reply:James Lord Pierpont wrote the song in 1857. It was written to be sung at a Thanksgiving program at his church in Boston.
