Irish, Double Jig (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Paul de Grae writes that it is likely Francis O'Neill obtained the jig from artist George Petrie's (1790-1866) manuscript collection, where it can be found as an untitled jig obtained from another collector, Patrick Weston Joyce (1827-1914), who had it "from D. Cleary, Kilfinane"[1]. The settings are close but not identical, perhaps the result of a reworking by Francis O'Neill's transcriber and collaborator, James O'Neill [2]. Petrie's following tune (Stanford/Petrie No. 966), another untitled jig collected from T. Davis, is also a cognate version of "Kilfinane Jig." See also "Connaughtman (The)," "Humors of Ayle House (The)" and "Down the Back Lane;" all are related tunes.
