JERRY AND TOM. American, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. The title is not a variant of "Tom and Jerry," the name of several traditional tunes in both British and American repertoire, but rather the name of two of source Chapman's cats (he had some sixteen of them). Although Chapman puts 'Jerry' as the first name, to avoid confusion.

Source for notated version: Owen "Snake" Chapman (1919-2003, Canada, Pike County, Ky.) [Milliner & Koken].

Printed sources: Milliner & Koken (Milliner-Koken Collection of American Fiddle Tunes), 2011; p. 335.
