"Air by Carolan" in P. O'Farrell's Pocket Companion, Part 4 (Vol. 2, part 2, 1810) is "Princess Royal". There are also tunes by Carolan of unknown title that someone may have applied a descriptive title to.

If we could see/hear the tune it would be a lot easier, but if Bruce O checked the book and said it was Princess Royal, then I would be prepared to bet that he knew what he was talking about.

Lovely tune, by the way:

Miss McDermott Roe aka Princess Royal

Please show us the music somehow. It's impossible to name a tune without any idea of what the tune is.
