Do you know of any figures or dances that had their roots in English
County, showed up in the Civil War period and are still extant in
some form in modern contra dancing? My mom is involved with a living
history farm in SC and they will be doing a program that will involve
all three types of dancing. They would like to be able to trace a
figure or dance through all three periods, and possibly look at how
the figure has changed over the years. If so, do you know details of
how they had changed over the years?
Thanks!
Jack
