Early versions of the tune can be found in the music manuscript collections of the Gunn Family, County Fermanagh, c. 1865, under the title "Boys of New York (2) (The)," and, as a distanced but cognate reel (in the second strain) in the mid-19th century Leonard-Kernan music manuscript collection from Abbeyshrule, Co.

"Tom Steele" was recorded in the 78 RPM era in New York by the Flanagan Brothers in 1928, Hugh Gillespie in 1938, and Michael Coleman in 1921 (albeit under the set title “Reidy Johnson's,” the name of a female Irish-American accordion player). Dublin piper Tommy Reck recorded the melody as a pipe solo in his first commercial release, for the Copley label, paired with “Scholar (The)” and “Salamanca (1).” Pipers tend to call the tune “Hand Me Down the Tackle.”
