INNOCENT MAID. English, Country Dance (6/8 time). A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody appears to have been first printed by Longman, Lukey & Broderip in London in 1776 in Bride's Favourite Collection of 200 Select Country Dances, Cotillons, followed by the Thompson's printing in 1780 (see below). It was popular, particularly in the United States, where it appears in a number of musicians' manuscript collections, including those of Jeremiah Brown (Seabrook, N.H., 1782), Luther Kingsley (Mansfield, Conn., 1795), Cushing Ells (Norwich, Conn., 1785), and Eleazer Cary (Mansfield, Conn., 1797), and the dance instructions (without music) appear in several more American copybooks of the period.
