Tune properties and standard notation
MRS. J. W. BOURKE. Scottish, Reel. F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The title possibly refers to a Miss Kerr of Upper Berkeley Street, Portman Square, London, who, in 1800, married Rev. J.W. Bourke, later Vicar of St. Martins, Shropshire. They had one child, a boy, who went sailing on a river while at college and drowned when his boat capsized.
