Lon's comments regarding Prunus insititia are interesting in that in the UK we know these little plums as Damsons.  Historically they where used for food and dye manufacture.  An area of the North West of England known as the Lake District has a rich history of growing Damsons and a local association has an interesting website  http://www.lythdamsons.org.uk  
Lon are these little fruits the same / similar to those you refer too?
