The tune was first printed as "Jackson's Rowly Powly" in O'Farrell's Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes (vol. II, p. 101), c. 1811, as "Jackson's Rowly Powly," although it is much better known today in Irish music as "Templehouse Jig (2) (The)." Breathnach (1996) also found it as "Apples in Winter" in Clare, "Kiltulla Jig" in Galway, and "Hare on the Mountain (The)" in Tipperary. County Cork Churchof Ireland cleric and uilleann piper James Goodman printed versions in his mid-19th century collections under the titles "Rowly Powly," "Grey Goose (3) (The)" and "Dunkeild House" Goodman's latter title makes the link to the tune's origins, for it is a Scottish jig composed by the great Perthshire fiddler-composer Niel Gow [1] (1727-1807), who titled it "Dunkeld House (1)."
