|f_source_for_notated_version="Cronin" [O'Neill]. Chicago fiddler Edward Cronin was born in Limerick Junction, County Tipperary, in 1838, where he learned to play. Cronin was a weaver by trade who emigrated to Troy, New York. He could not find employment as a weaver in that city, and took a variety of jobs, finally settling in Chicago. O'Neill valued him for his large repertoire, and his skill as a dance fiddler. He transcribed tunes from Cronin each week for over two years, until Cronin ended the relationship over some perceived slight. O'Neill lamented that Cronin was so suspicious and held grudges so long, that he inevitably alienated those who tried to befriend him. | |||
