The local band played the Garland tune which is very simila r to the Cornish Floral Dance. In fact it is said it originated fro m there as in the 1700's tin-miners from Cornwall moved to Derbyshire to work in leadmines." (T. A. Hunt said that he understood that the Moons had originally come from Wales. They were small and very dark, and resemble the Welch people who lived in the hills on the west side of Wales." !IGI 1994: Hannah Moon, chr. 6 Jul 1755, mother Elizabeth Moon, at Crich.
