Home Sweet Home Tied to Plank Road Origins and Payne
The familiar song Home Sweet Home, written by American John Howard Payne with music by English composer Sir Henry Bishop, originated in 1822 in Milan for Clari the Maid of Milan. Payne rose from modest beginnings in New York to acting in London, later writing and touring before dying in Tunis in 1852. The piece became globally beloved, with Jenny Lind once awakening the crowd by singing Payne’s lyric at a Washington event, before the narrator reflects on Paris’s Palais Royal and the enduring spirit of home.
