Many thanks for providing all this information. Ive added the publication date, a brief extra info and the dances and the devisers where they are new to the database.

For Silver Threads the database has a tune Brig of Perth attributed to Donald Dow (which corresponds to the tune on The Session website). It looks as though the Brig 'o Perth by Joe Kerr is a different tune so I also added that.
