(4)" (Pa.), "Harvest Home (1)," "Higgins' Hornpipe," "Kephart's Clog" (Pa.), "Kildare Fancy," "Snyder's Jig" (Pa.), "Standard Hornpipe," "Wilson's Clog (1)," "Zig-Zag Hornpipe/Clog." Irish, Hornpipe. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). ABB' (Moylan): AABB (Levey, Roche). The name Cork is derived from the Gaelic word coraigh, a swamp. The tune was known under this title by central New York fiddler Winifred "Murph" Baker (Champion, NY), a regionally significant traditional fiddler in the mid-late 20th century. Most American versions were learned under a variety of alternate titles (the most popular being "Harvest Home"), with "Cork Hornpipe" appearing exclusively in Irish publications.
