Bugsy Origins: The Young and Single Sailor (5) Origins: THE YOUNG AND SINGLE SAILOR 16 May 22

I'm interested in the back story behind the origins of this song,(That I know as "A fair Maid Walking in her Garden").
I'm wondering if it came from the Time of Trafalgar or from some other war.
I'd like to know so that I can work the story into the introduction of the song which I really enjoy singing.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Cheers

Bugsy
