N:
N: The Fiddler's Companion says that it is sometimes confused with "The Growling Old Man and Woman" 
N: which is very similar in parts, although the two may have derived from a common ancestor. 
N:
N: Apparently common in Newfoundland, as well as the Acadian area of PEI and New Brunswick, as well 
N: as the Ottawa Valley and Quebec, and is found in the Don Messer Collection.
N:
N: There is some indication it may have been written (as "Le bonhomme et la bonne femme") in 1930 
N: by Mary Bolduc (nee Travis), the first author-composer-singer of French Canada (from Newport, 
N: gaspesia, province of quebec).
