Ye gods.... what did researchers do before the Internet? I found 'Boyne Water' was an old irish song in some (probably 17th or 18th century) war. Lots of references in the song with which I am not familiar like Ouldbridge Town, Duke Schomberg, Prostestants of Drougheda, Brave King William, Cunning French near to Duleek. I am wondering a couple of things. #1 if the poem used at the 1807 Bicentennial was really about Pocohontas. It says "Ann", but my history is not good enough to know if maybe that was really a Christian name given her. #2 If the tune, like Anacreon in Heaven a few years later, was just a convenient one to hang a poem on to. Finally, the fact there was apparently a big celebration in 1807 for Jamestowne is news to me, and quite welcome. I would like to learn more, like was Thomas Jefferson there, amongst others.
