Auburn

The original '''Auburn''' was either a real or a fictitious village in Ireland, written about by the Irish poet, Oliver Goldsmith, in his poem "The Deserted Village" (1770). In the poes, Goldsmith revisits "Auburn", a village of which he had fond memories: "Sweet Auburn, lovliest village of the plain". Thus, the name "Auburn" was taken by Irish and British setters to the New World of the United States, Canada, and Australia.
