Subject: RE: Tune Req: captain pugwash
I think fiddlers just put their own name on tunes if they don't know the real name. A tune collector (and old timey fiddler) I know told me of an old Southern Illinois fiddler who said to him, "This tune's called 'The Flowers of EdinBURG...'" then added, "that's in Germany, y'know!"
