What the available scores show

The three Old Man Dillon scores are each single-track notations of roughly 180 notes and about 24 seconds. All three open with a one-sharp key signature and a 6/8 time signature. No composer or arranger is identified in the listings.

Comparing the three versions

Two of the scores contain 180 notes and one contains 181; their durations fall within about a second of each other. Because those descriptions are so close, compare the notation itself, including beaming, phrase marks, repeats and any added directions, rather than choosing by title or length alone.

Reading the 6/8 opening

A 6/8 time signature groups six eighth notes into two dotted-quarter beats. The one-sharp key signature is the standard signature for G major and E minor; the notes and closing cadence in each score will show which key is intended.

What is not established

The available information does not identify the composer, arranger, instrument, origin or genre of Old Man Dillon. The title and the 6/8 metre do not by themselves confirm that the piece is a jig or any other specific dance form.
