The composition is among the several credited to blackface minstrel musician biography:Zeke Backus in Ryan's/Cole's 1000. There was a Charles Backus who was a blackface minstrel performer in the mid-1800's, who performed for some time in San Francisco. Zeke is sometimes identified with him, but whether they are the same man, or related, is unknown. Zeke is mentioned in Thomas Allston Brown's A History of the New York Stage (1902, pp. 361-362) in an entry on "a place of amusement" that featured minstrel and variety performers, called White's Melodeon, located at 53 Bowery Street in the mid-19th century:
Among those who became famous in the minstrel world afterwards, and who appeared here, were Master Juba, Neil Hall, tambourine; Bill Smith, bones (Smith was noted for his large mouth); Frank Stanton, banjo; Clem Titus, violin jig player; and Zeke Backus, violin jig and reel player.
Backus was also an original member of Edwin P. Christy's famous Christy's Minstrels, whose opening performance was at New York City's Palmo's Opera House, in 1846, where they continued performances until 1852, and also met with great success in London.
George C. Coe's Album of Jigs and Reels contained the tune under the title "Johnson's Reel (3)", and was published in the United States in the 1876 at seven years before Boston publisher Elias Howe issued his Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883), where the tune is called "Ivy Leaf."
