i have heard that my great uncle...what is it about great uncles??!!
used to play fiddle for dances...

my parents both played piano and dad was in a wind symphony..
not folk music, but music. clarinet, oboe, bassoon

i inherited a fiddle from my mom who said she got it from her brother.

I met a cousin who was involved (and still is) in music in Minnesota.
He helped to start the Cedar Cultural Center, was and/or is on the board of directors...http://www.thecedar.org
