| History of "Young Ladies In Town" |
| "This song first appeared in the Boston Newsletter in 1769. The song was an appeal to American women to support the boycott of British textiles. The song was a result of the Townshend Acts of 1767, which decreed that Americans pay duty on British lead paint, glass and tea. In response, the Americans called for a boycott of British goods, in hope it would result in the repeal of the acts. The boycott lasted for two years and resulted in 'staggering losses on British trade.'" Information and music contributed by "Popular Songs In American History," a folk music website by Lesley Nelson.
