Leading us chronologically through the settlement of the state, Marshall considers the place of homemade music in people's lives across social and ethnic communities from the late 1700s to the World War I years and into the early 1920s. Through the settlement of the state of Missouri, Marshall investigates how these communities established our cultural heritage, the "Old Stock Americans," (primarily Scotch-Irish from Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia) ; African Americans, German-speaking immigrants, people with American Indian ancestry (focusing on Cherokee families dating from the Trail of Tears in the 1830s), and Irish railroad workers in the post-Civil War period. These are the primary communities whose fiddle and dance traditions came together on the Missouri frontier to cultivate the bounty of old-time fiddling enjoyed today. 650 0 $a Folk music $z Missouri $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Fiddlers $z Missouri. 650 0 $a Fiddle tunes $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Fiddle tunes $z Missouri $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Old-time music $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Fiddle tunes. 941 $a 3 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204065322.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110051245.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20191003015347.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7E828A5C0AF111E39305B8A1DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
