Tune Req: Jennifer's Waltz

Does anyone have an ABC or MIDI file for a tune called Jennifer's Waltz? I think Josh Graves has played this but I don't know how many others have recorded it. I need to learn this tune for a performance on Oct. 1, 2004.

Thanks,

JC's Tunefinder doesn't list it. Neither does the Session

The tune is mentioned here as being composed by Eileen O'Brien.

I'm wondering if there are OTHER Jennifer's Waltz, as there was another site which claimed someone named Jeromy wrote it for his wife.

It's apparently popular enough to be in at Dobro Tune book from Mel Bay. (Or at least a tune with this title). Hey, if it's popular enough for Dobro, perhaps it's something the Bluegrass people might know?

Thanks, George & mike, for the effort but these aren't the tune I'm looking for. I don't know how recently it was composed or who the composer is but I think the tune I'm looking for would be known in bluegrass circles if anywhere.
