 Rollinson, Thomas H.
DOB: January 4, 1844 (Ware, Massachusetts)
DOD: June 23, 1928 (Waltham, Massachusetts)
Rollinson organized his own band in Willimantic (MASS) in 1872, and it was
known as the Willimantic Brass Band. He also served as organist in several
churches and taught bands throughout the state. He performed and conducted
several other bands throughout his career, most notable, the Waltham Watch
Company Band (Waltham, MASS).
In 1887, he was employed by the Oliver Ditson Company as an arranger for the
department of publications. It is estimated that during his 40 years there, he
composed 400 original works and made arrangements of approximately 1,500 others. He also used the
pseudonym Rolin Thomson.1

Tramp, Tramp, Tramp (march), Published in 1888 by WH. Cundy. This grand fantasia for cornet,
clarinet, or baritone is based on George F. Roots popular Civil War song of the same name.
