Tune Annotations

Tune Annotations:	'''SHE'S A DAUGHTER OF DANIEL O'CONNELL''' (Is Ingean Domnaill ui Connaill i). AKA "Is ingean Domnaill Uí Connaill i." Irish, Slow Air (3/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Paul de Grae finds that Francis O'Neill had written to A.P. Graves that the air was "uncommon if not unknown," a curious assertion when the air is fairly well known bing the vehicle for "[[Maid with the Bonny Brown Hair]]," and, in modern times, Con Fada O Drisceoil's "Spoons Murder." Further, de Grae finds variants in P.W. Joyce's "[[High-Flier (The)]]", and, in minor mode, "[[Woods of Kilmurray (The)]]" <ref>Paul de Grae, “Notes on Sources of Tunes in the O’Neill Collections”, 2017 [https://www.irishtune.info/public/oneill-sources.htm]</ref>.
Source for notated version:	Chicago Police Sergeant James O’Neill, a fiddler originally from County Down and Francis O’Neill’s collaborator [O’Neill].
Printed sources:	O'Neill ('''O’Neill’s Irish Music'''), 1915; No. 75. O'Neill ('''Music of Ireland: 1850 Melodies'''), 1903; No. 44, p. 8.
