The Tune was Written in Holland by a man called Janus Fijordsonn . It arrived In Englad, Suffolk wirh Dutch Fishermen. The Tune was often used in homemade lullabyes in Both Norfolk and Suffolk, it eventualy became common all over East Anglia..although there were so many different versions of it that It was rarely written down. The tune was taken to America where is also underwent many adaptations...the Shaker Hymn being one of them. |
