In America the melody appears in George Willig's Collection of Popular Country Dances, No. 1 (Philadelphia, 1812) and the first volume of Edward Riley's Flute Melodies (New York, 1814). Middletown, Conn., fifer Gerge Bevens included it in his commonplace book of 1825. It also appears in Balls' Gentleman's Amusement Book 3 (London, 1815), a publication later reissued in London and Philadelphia in 1830.
