N:Unrelated to the slip jig with the same name; there
N:is a single jig in O'Neill called 'Miss Blair's Fancy'
N:which is the same tune.
N:First published in 'Beauties of Niel Gow', 1819, as
N:'Miss Margaret Brown. Now Lady Camden', and possibly

N:as 'Planxty Browne') is suspect.

N:and in Kerr's Merry Melodies, Vol. 2, No. 304.
N:It appears in the Notts Music Database as 'Maggie's
