This book is a History of their lives, their talent, who they were and their contribution to the United States of America.
I started researching Gypsies in general over 35 years ago, When I began my genealogy studies I started to find information about these Gypsies, and the information I was finding was amazing. The family tree research is great to find, but only of interest to the family. This find is of interest to America and Europe.
Over 130 years of documented historical history of a group of people that needs to be recognized for what they did.
There were many authors, publications, journals, newspapers, television and radio information about these Gypsies, the problem with that was it was spread out with one not knowing of the other.
This book puts it all together to tell their story . This group of Gypsies were talented musicians and known throughout the United States.
There are many newspaper articles that documented a tradition that is well over 300 years old, and today in America it is gone. Many people ask, what happened to the Gypsy Musicians? This book will tell you of the great heritage they had and how they lost it.
