The earliest record of the tune is found in David Young's Duke of Perth Manuscript (AKA the Drummond Castle Manuscript) of 1734, in the possession of the Earl of Ancaster at Drummond Castle. John Glen (1891), evidently not knowing of Young's MS, found the earliest printing to be in Robert Bremner's 1757 collection (pg. 89). The Fife, Scotland, town of Cupar is perhaps the place referred to in the title. Carlin (Gow Collection), 1986; No. 518 (appears as "Hey to Cupar"). Gow (Complete Repository), Part 2, 1802; pg. 25.
