West Virginia fiddler Wilson Douglas stated that regionally<br> (i.e. eastern Kentucky/West Virginia/southern Ohio) influential fiddler<br> Ed Haley played this tune. John Hartford notes that R.P. Christeson's<br> source, Uncle Bob Walters' family moved to Iowa from Kentucky in the<br> mid-1800's and that both Walters' father and grandfather were fiddlers.<br> His implication is that this musical family brought the tune to the<br> mid-west from eastern Kentucky.<br> I learned this originally from Bob Carlin's arrangement printed in<br> Ken Perlman's Melodic Clawhammer Banjo (1979). This arrangement is<br> similar to Carlin's with some modifications.<br> <br>
