The reel also appears in the 1770 music manuscript collection of Northumbrian musician William Vickers, as "Double Kisses or, Kiss hir Twise." Unfortunately, nothing is known about Vickers. Flute player Thomas Molyneaux (Shelburne, Nova Scotia) also included it in the second of his two music copybooks (c. 1788). There are similarities to "Tartan Plaid (2)" (with parts reversed) in Rev.
