Overview

The purpose of this book is to share the history of the Union Grove Old-time Fiddlers Convention with descendants of Henry Price (H.P.) & Ada Casey Van Hoy. I have no plans to publish or profit from the book and have made attempts to identify all sources of the assembled data. My research resulted in an outcome that was different than I had initially expected - - some background data is included to help explain why. My grandfather Henry Price (H.P.) Van Hoy attended what is now Appalachian State University in Boone, N.C. H. P. strongly believed education was the way for local children to climb out of the depths of a depressed economy that was very difficult on people living in rural north Iredell County. Shortly before his first Union Grove Fiddlers Convention in 1924, H.P., who began teaching school at the age of 17, resigned his job as teacher and principal at Union Grove School to accept a position as county treasurer and tax collector.
