MERRY SALOPIANS, THE. English, Triple Hornpipe and Country Dance Tune (3/2 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BAA'. The melody with country dance directions were published in London by John Walsh in his Twenty Four New Country Dances for the Year 1718 (p. 14). Dances in the publication were the work of dancing master Nathaniel Kynaston (1683-1757), who is associated with the town of Oswestry, in the county of Shropshire. Graham Christian (2015) records that the word 'Salopian' is from the name 'Salop', an ancient name for Shropshire.
