Flatfoot dancing is a variation of the clogging the Scots-Irish brought over to Appalachia and eventually into the Ozarks. When you didn’t have TV this is what you learned to dance! Iff’n it weren’t against Yur religion!

We came from Ireland a “ways back”. I’m 60 and I think I remember this lady as I grew up not too far from Orma. When I was a kid, I was so fascinated that women played the banjo. Some of us got out before the potato famine. We traced our family back to Limerick and Londonderry. Do you live close to either of those places?

Scot’s Irish don’t much do clogging and most Appalachian people aren’t from there. It’s Northern English and that’s where you are from. However, those northern English borders people did in ancient times move in a band across northern Ireland and the English Scottish borders.
