I don't think these have been signed off yet, but I may have missed it:

1424 GNTLANN  GENTLE ANNIE  Stephen C. Foster.
1425 GENTLAN2  GENTLE ANNIE 2  Australian re-write of the Foster song.

Tune Add: Missing tunes wanted: (120* d)  Added by Sorcha, who had been told that the tune was originally Irish. As Phillipa pointed out elsewhere, that probably isn't the case; it appears that someone has set a poem in Irish Gaelic to Foster's tune, and that people have assumed subsequently that it must have been Irish all along.
