The scores listed as The Miners of Wicklow agree on an opening key signature of two sharps (D major) and an opening 6/8 time signature. Two also give an opening tempo of 120 BPM, while the third gives no tempo. Treat these as markings for the opening of the notation, not as a complete description of the tune or a required performance pace.
The most visible difference among the selected scores is the credit line: one names “collected by McFadden,” while the others give no composer name. The supplied details do not explain who McFadden was or how that score differs musically. Compare the notation itself, including the first bars and any markings, rather than assuming one score is easier or more authoritative.
A 6/8 signature is compound duple: two main beats per bar, each normally divided into three quavers. Counting the tune in two often feels steadier than counting six equal beats. Start slowly, check how the tempo marking is written in the score, and use the listed 120 BPM only as an opening guide where it appears.
The collector credit is a lead for further checking, not a full attribution. Any historical or performing claim should be verified against a reliable source.
