I got the recipe from the out-of-print cookbook Ginger East to West, and that includes both the original with the pearl ash and the updated-for-modern-sensibilities recipe, which is the one you have a copy of.
I called it George Washington's Mother's Gingerbread, which is also in that cookbook, but I got confused about which one was which. I think the alleged George Washington one is a lot more complex.
