Tune properties and standard notation

Source Joshua Gibbons (1778-1871) was a papermaker and musician from the village of Tealby, near Market Rasen, in the Lincolnshire Wolds. The tune, presumably meant to accompany a figure of the then fairly new quadrille dance, was set in the key of 'G' major in Gibbons' mss.
