I just ran across a couple of short YouTube videos that cover two lines of play that resemble the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) and which might have been inspirations for Alonzo Wheeler Jerome (the lines of play, not the videos).
In the first, GJ_Chess (www.gjchess.com) presents "Chess Trap 46 (Sarratt Gambit)" which looks at 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.Bc4 Bc5 5.Ng5 Nh6 6.Nxf7 the Sarratt Gambit (or attack).
In the second, Chess Traps (www.chesstraps.net) presents "Scotch Gambit - The Scotch Mist Trap (trap no. 393)" which looks at 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.Bc4 Bc5 5.Ng5 Nh6 6.Qh5, sometimes called the Sarratt Gambit as well, but which might better be called the Vitzthum Attack.
These are short videos, but there is enough content to help you decide if you want to at the lines to your opening repertoire.
