Fiddle festival honors heritage

BY TERESA MCQUERREY RIM REVIEW EDITOR

Welcome to the 2015 Payson Arizona Old Time Fiddlers Contest and Acoustic Celebration.

This three-day event is truly a piece of Arizona history.

Its history goes back more than 45 years and has always celebrated the musical heritage of the pioneers of our great state.

The Vertielee Floyd Memorial — Old Time Fiddlin’ Arizona State Championships (National Qualifier), Old Time Opry and “Fiddle-in Band Competition” offers three days of family fun. This event includes old time, western, gospel and bluegrass music concerts, old time fiddling and band competition for all ages. Plus there is camping under the clear autumn skies of the Rim Country, with the air filled with music from impromptu jam sessions.

It is the mission of the Payson Old Time Fiddlin’ Arizona State Championships and Acoustic Celebration to promote, celebrate and perpetuate the old time and acoustic music heritage of our state and our nation for current and future generations.

Organizers strive to raise awareness of old time and acoustic music styles through live performances, musical competition and intentional outreach. In doing so they hope to ensure that the music of our collective past has a secure place in the future.

THE HISTORY

There are a couple of different stories about how the Payson Old Time Fiddle Festival was founded.

As Jerry Floyd remembers it, it came about from impromptu jam sessions at the clubhouse at the KOA Campground on Highway 260, which was originally built by his parents, J.W. and Vertielee Floyd.

“Mom would hear music coming from the campsites and went to investigate. Then she invited the musicians to come up to the building (clubhouse) and play. Sometimes they’d play inside if the weather was bad, other times they’d play on the porch,” he said in an interview with the Roundup.

Nelson Beck, who is coordinating this year’s event for the Payson Parks, Recreation and Tourism Department, said the contest was organized by Vertielee Floyd as a way to help fill up the campground and bring customers to area motels and businesses.

“She was a pioneer in Payson economic development,” Beck said of Floyd.

Son Jerry agreed. “She was always interested in doing

Vertielee Floyd is credited by many with having founded the Payson Old Time Fiddle Festival — it has even been called the Vertielee Floyd Memorial Old Time Fiddle Festival. A modest woman, the late Mrs. Floyd said it was really the dream of D.C. Ashby, Don Stephenson and the Reid brothers. Still her spirit and love for the community is part of the celebration.

things to promote the town and bring people here and help the businesses.”

Mrs. Floyd told a different version to the Roundup back in 1996. While she chaired the Rim Country’s celebration of old-time fiddling for many years, she said she was not its founder.

“The fiddle contest was a dream of local fiddlers D.C. Ashby, Don Stephenson and fiddling brothers, Githon and Clinton Reid,” Floyd said in the article.

“Mr. Ashby, age 80-plus, and Don attended a (chamber of commerce) board meeting at the old Open Range Cafe at the south end of town. After hearing Mr. Ashby explain how a fiddle contest would be a good addition to the annual

Fall Festival, the board approved his plan and gave him $80 for expenses and prize money.”

The first fiddlers contest in 1970 was an old-fashioned community event. Local clubs and organizations had booths and sold specialty items. Each high school class set up a carnival-type activity and the 4-H and Scout groups also participated. Homemakers from around town provided the food — sandwiches, cookies and cakes.

That first event was held at what was called the “park” at the corner of Main Street and Beeline Highway, where the chamber and county buildings now stand. The chamber building was tiny — it had electricity, but no plumbing, Floyd said. So, Roy Creach, who owned the Richfield Station across the street, made his facilities available.

She said among the competitors in that first contest were the Reid brothers and Stephenson. Jody Sixkiller, her husband, Dudley Whitlock and legendary Arizona fiddler Lyman Keeling of Mesa, also participated. Dr. James Griffith, director of the Southwest Folklore Center at the University of Arizona, brought his banjo, Payson resident Mac Bevell brought his guitar, and Pat Watson played a little portable piano in the back of a 3/4-ton truck and her son, Tim, played the spoons.

Floyd said in 1974 the contest would become an official U.S. Bicentennial event and the official Arizona State Championship contest. Floyd turned the reins of the contest over to Roy Sandoval in late 2001, shortly before her death in the spring of 2002. Sandoval coordinated the festival for several years. The town of Payson now presents it.

Over the years the Old Time Fiddle Festival has had many homes. While the first event was presented at the northwest corner of Beeline and Main, it has also been held at Rumsey Park, at the Houston Mesa Horse Camp, south of Main Street, and even at the Star Valley Baptist Church one year.

“The year it was held at the church was the year we almost lost it,” said Chris Floyd, Jerry’s wife, who has kept scores at the festival for at least 20 years.

She said that was the year the chamber decided it didn’t want to put it on anymore, but Floyd would not let it go.

Even after she had officially turned the reins over to Roy Sandoval in 2001, she continued to work on it.

Among the other early contributors to the festival were Sandra Schoup and Dorothy Donovan Wagner, according to the Floyds. Wagner arranged to have storytellers and games for children at the early festivals, they said, and Schoup went around the state to other contests to promote the Payson event.

Barbecue dinner and concert part of fun at fiddle event

BY TERESA MCQUERREY RIM REVIEW EDITOR

The annual Dinner Concert & Jammin’ by the Fire portion of the 2015 Old Time Fiddle Contest marks the third year a special barbecue has been held for competitors, their families, friends and the public.

Admission for the public is $10 per person and tickets can be obtained at the Payson Parks, Recreation and Tourism office in Green Valley Park or at the venue,

the Payson Event Center.

Everyone should plan to bring their own chair, organizers advise.

As part of the evening’s festivities, winners of the 2014 Fiddle-in Acoustic Band contest winners, Generations Band, presents a concert from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Dinner is barbecued pork, prepared by Ruth and Bob Claver, and includes beans and chips, plus beverages and possibly some dessert.

While Generations Band is offering the “formal” entertainment for the evening, don’t be surprised if some impromptu jam sessions fill the Rim night air with more great music.

Rim Country fiddler Henry Haught

BY STAN BROWN RIM REVIEW COLUMNIST

In the latter decades of the 19th century, a family named Haught began moving from Texas to Arizona, and the lives of this prolific group would become the basis for endless tales of Rim Country folklore.

Among them were Henry, known as “Pappy” and his wife Sarah Bell, known as “Mammy”. [1] At first they answered an invitation from another relative to come to Oklahoma and help settle the acreage he had already claimed in Indian Territory.

Land there had been opened by the government for settlement. With them were their two children, Samuel (later known as “Green Valley Sam”) and Ida Bell (later known as “Sis” Garrels Martin.) [2] At Rush Springs, Okla., they had two more children, Mary Margaret (to be called “Babe”) and Columbus (to be called “Boy”).

By the summer of 1897 the call from Henry’s uncle Fred to come to Arizona was enticing, and the family packed up to begin an arduous wagon trip further west. With them was Henry’s widowed mother Mary Ann, whom the children called “Gaggie.” [3].

His wife Sarah Bell was again pregnant and somewhere in Arizona’s White Mountains her time arrived. On Aug. 10, 1897 she gave birth to Irene Champion Million Haught, to be called “Million.”

The name came from a newspaper article Sarah had read about a lady named Irene Champion who was a millionaire.

Within a few days of the baby’s birth Mammy Haught was again driving the team while Pappy herded the few cattle they had brought with them. They came down off the Rim at Gordon Canyon and by the

time Million was 10 days old they arrived at Uncle Fred’s Apple Valley Farm on Ellison Creek, which he had purchased from Jesse Ellison.

Sis Haught later recalled the delight of that arrival, “The first thing I remember is Uncle Fred and the other men went out to the big orchards and picked baskets of fruit for us to eat. This was the first fruit us kids had ever seen, and I can still remember how delicious it was.”

They lived there for the next several years, and it was not long before Pappy’s fame as a fiddler spread throughout the Rim Country. He rode his horse to dances all around the area, where he would play the fiddle and sing all night. Their community under the Mogollon Rim was called “Myrtle” and Pappy had been named postmaster in the spring of 1900, though he was gone so much of the time Mammy served as acting postmistress. [4] To help maintain his family Pappy accepted engagements to play the fiddle at local dances. He also began developing his herd of cattle, having traded his mules to a rancher in Tonto Basin for cows.

The family had an orphaned bull calf they picked up on the wagon trip from Oklahoma.

In November 1902 Fred Haught sold the apple farm to the Goswicks, and Henry moved his family over to Elam Bole’s place on Robert’s Mesa along the upper waters of Tonto Creek.

The log cabin they built would become one of the Rim Country’s prime artifacts. It was fashioned after a plan brought by German immigrants to America and had become the standard for pioneer housing in America’s westward growth. It consisted of alterCONTINUED ON PAGE 5

FIDDLING HAS LONG HISTORY IN AREA FROM PAGE 4

nating layers of unshaped and undried logs with chinking. This gave the advantage of quick construction by unskilled labor. It had no windows, and the floor was dirt mixed with animal blood, tamped to hardness. It was covered with wood chips, and often a carpet of animal hides.

In the spring of 1909 the water supply ran dry, and Henry attempted to revive the spring with a blast of gunpowder. This destroyed the spring for good, and the family had to move. They brought “squatter’s rights” on the Dick Williams’ place further down Tonto Creek and moved the cabin, log by log, reconstructing it a bit larger than before. That same year “Gaggie” died leaving Sarah with more work than before.

The family cattle herd increased, and in the 1910 Census Pappy listed his vocation as “Stockman.” However, he also found it necessary to join many

other local men going to work at Fossil Creek. He was a blacksmith on the new pipeline being built to divert water to the Childs generating plant.

In 1911 Henry’s family moved again, this time to a place named Little Green Valley. The Albert D. Landry family owned the 144-acre ranch, but for years had been absentee owners. Henry was able to purchase it in exchange for 100 yearling heifers.

Henry and Sarah’s oldest son Sam remained on the Tonto Creek homestead, where he used the family cabin for the storage and drying of meat. [5] Henry had also registered a claim on land in the forest where he established a sawmill. This location would later become Tonto Village. The entire family shared in the work of the mill, and later, in 1922, they would provide the lumber for Zane Grey’s cabin.

True to the restless spirit of pioneers, in 1917 Henry moved his immediate family, except Sam

who ran the Tonto Creek ranch, to a 240-acre farm in Chandler, Ariz.

He wanted to try his hand at farming, but in two years they were heavily in debt and moved back to Little Green Valley. During their time away, Zane Grey had taken up part-time residence on Tonto Creek, building a cabin on land purchased from Henry’s grandnephew Anderson Lee “Babe” Haught. The writer spent long hours with Mammy and Pappy Haught gleaning stories about life on the frontier that would be incorporated into his novels. His book “The Code of the West” was written about the Henry Haught family, and when it was filmed on location the Haught children appeared in the production.

By the 1930s it was time for Henry and Sarah Bell to retire.

Sam and his family took over the Little Green Valley ranch.

Mammy and Pappy lived in Payson with their daughter “Sis” and her family until Sam bought them a house of their own. Henry died July 26, 1953 and Sarah Bell died May 15, 1959, aged 86 and 87. They are buried in the Payson Pioneer Cemetery where the name “Haught” adorns at least 34 graves.

[1] Sarah Bell had been born in England Dec. 22, 1869, the youngest of six Bell children. Her father Thomas Bell moved the family to Dallas County, Texas where Henry Haught courted the teenage Sarah. Henry had been born in Somerset, Penn. in 1867 where his forebears had settled from Germany. Henry and Sarah were married Sept. 2, 1888.

[2] The Haught clan became so numerous in the Rim Country that cousins, who had the same first names, were given nicknames to

distinguish them.

[3] The four-wagon train included Henry’s cousin Peter and wife with their son “Red Headed” Henry, and a Mr. and Mrs. Cook, their two sons and two cowhands.

[4] The Myrtle School opened in 1899 to accommodate 17 students from the Haught, Landry, Goswick and Powers families.

[5] The Haught ranch on Tonto Creek would later become a subdivision and a summer camp. In 1999 Larry Hammon acquired the property on which the cabin was located and the Northern Gila County Historical Society obtained ownership of the old Haught cabin. It was moved logby-log and reconstructed on the Rim Country Museum campus, where it can be seen today. A celebration of the 10th anniversary of this acquisition will be held Oct. 17-18.

Big music weekend

BY TERESA MCQUERREY RIM REVIEW EDITOR

The big weekend of music in the Rim Country opens with a great concert on Friday night.

Doors of the Payson High Auditorium open at 5:30 p.m. with the evening’s music starting at 6:30 p.m.

The featured artists of the night are the Quebe Sisters. Also performing will be Western Bred, Brush Arbor Revival and Generation Band.

Admission is $8 per person. Tickets can be purchased at the Payson Parks, Recreation and Tourism office in Green Valley Park, 1000 W. Country Club, online at activityreg.com or at the door.

THE QUEBE SISTERS

When the Quebe Sisters from Texas take a stage, and the triple-threat fiddle champions start playing and singing in multi-part close harmony, audiences are usually transfixed, then blown away.

It’s partly because the trio’s vocal and instrumental performances are authentic all-Americana, all the time, respectful of the artists that inspired them the most.

And whether the Quebes (rhymes with “maybe”) are decked out in denims and boots or fashionably dressed to the nines in makeup, skirts and heels, the fresh-faced, clean-cut sisters, all in their 20s, look as good as they sound.

Not surprisingly, the Quebe Sisters win standing ovations at just about every show.

It’s been that way since 2000, when they

started fiddling together as pre-teens.

The sisters’ past is as colorful and eventful as their future is bright. Growing up in Burleson, a southern suburb of Fort Worth, Hulda, Sophia and Grace were ages 7, 10 and 12 in 1998 when they attended their first local fiddle competition in nearby Denton, and decided fiddling was what they wanted to do.

The girls earned solo and group accolades early on, winning state and national championships in their respective age groups in 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002.

The Quebes’ evolution from the whiz-kid western swing fiddlers they were back then to the smokin’-hot young adult Americana band they are today is a remarkable story, by any measure.

Along with headlining their own shows to ever-growing audiences, they’ve shared stages with American music legends like Willie Nelson, George Strait, Merle Haggard, Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder, Ray Price, Connie Smith, Marty Stuart, Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers, Ray Benson and Asleep at the Wheel, Riders in the Sky and many others.

Today, after more than a decade of traveling the U.S. and the world, and recording three acclaimed albums, Grace, Sophia and Hulda Quebe are pros in a variety of genres, and count many famous musicians among their biggest boosters.

The Quebes’ unbridled passion for American music, along with their talent, skills and a lot of hard work, has taken them far beyond their wildest early aspi-

rations.

“One thing is for sure, you don’t see a group like the Quebe Sisters come along every day,” famed Opry announcer Eddie Stubbs told listeners on his own show on Nashville’s WSM. “Give them your undivided attention, and if you’re not already, you too, will become a fan.”

WESTERN BRED

Carved out of friendship and passion for country music, Western Bred hit the Arizona music scene in the early 1980s.

Blending strong vocals with high-energy music and a commitment to entertain, Western Bred quickly became a favorite in Phoenix area honky-tonks and dance clubs. In 1989, legendary Phoenix nightclub Mr. Lucky’s hired Western Bred as the house band. This spawned an opportunity to share the stage with local country music icon, and club owner J. David Sloan.

Together they would spend the next 14 years entertaining folks from the stage of Arizona’s No. 1 country music nightclub.

Performing five nights a week and working with a strict rehearsal schedule proved to be a great platform to mold the band into a craftful music force.

This venue would also bring the opportunity to work shows with recording artists such as Kenny Chesney, Mark Chestnut, the Dixie Chicks, Keith Urban, Waylon Jennings, and many more.

With the heightened popularity and demand for the band, Western Bred would perform at many other venues as well —

rodeos, concerts, corporate parties, dances and more. This busy performance schedule would cast the band in front of thousands of country music fans each year and helped earn Western Bred the title “Arizona’s Best Country Band” (Arizona Republic).

Western Bred, deep rooted in Arizona country music and southwestern culture, this seasoned band continues to share great music and fun with folks everywhere.

BRUSH ARBOR REVIVAL

John and Peggy Craig founded Brush Arbor Revival in 2007. It has played in churches, at county fairs, bluegrass festivals, in RV parks, retirement homes and at private parties. Performances have included everything from providing special music in church worship services to being responsible for an entire Easter service and everything in between.

“We are particularly grateful for the opportunities to present gospel music in an increasing number of non-religious settings,” said the Craigs on their website.

The band plays monthly for the Pioneer Retirement Home and the Prescott Opry at the Elks Theater in Prescott.

The band’s performances are part of a ministry that is primarily funded by free will offerings and donations received through the “sale” of three recorded live CDs. ABOUT THE ARTISTS

being both a musician and the band’s promoter. Her rock-solid bass playing is the “glue” that holds the band’s timing together. Her joyful stage presence is infectious to all around her.

John Craig has been playing traditional bluegrass music since the late 1950s with such bands as Stoney Creek, Backporch Bluegrass, Gospel Express, Bluegrass Brethern and Trusting Hearts. With Brush Arbor Revival since its beginning, John sings lead and harmony as well as playing guitar and dobro.

Anita Wells is a Phoenix native and the daughter of a Pentecostal preacher. She said she feels honored to sing bluegrass gospel music (a music that she has been around all her life) and play the guitar with Brush Arbor Revival.

Larry Evearitt is a retired school principal, originally from Ohio, but who has lived in Tempe since 1977. He has played the banjo for more than 30 years. He and his wife, Bonnie, have two children and five grandchildren. Larry said he feels privileged to play gospel music for the Lord.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Although practical situations continue to dominate this week, there’s time for the Lamb to indulge in the fun things in life -- like maybe taking a special someone out for a great evening.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This week favors relationships.

Take time to renew old ones, and make time to go where new friends can be found. On a more practical note, expect news about a business deal.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You should be seeing some progress on that new workplace situation. Meanwhile, family matters might demand more attention, and you’ll want to set aside time to deal with them.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A relationship suddenly might present some challenges you never expected. After talking things out, you might want to consider taking some time to assess what you’ve learned.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) A disappointing response to a request might dampen the Lion’s spirits. But you might want to ask the reasons behind it. What you learn can be of great importance in a future undertaking.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A once-volatile situation should be settled by now, giving you a chance to refocus on a project you’ve been planning for. Look for an interested party to rally to your support.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A business matter that unexpectedly turns into a personal situation could create complications. Best to resolve the matter now before too much harm can be done.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Emotions can run high when they involve personal matters that no one really wants to talk about. But this could be a good time to create the means to a workable outcome.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A positive response to a workplace request could lead the way to other longsought changes. Congratulations. A personal situation also takes a welcome turn.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Patience pays off, as that once-overwhelming work situation continues to become easier to handle on a one-by-one basis. Look for positive news from a colleague.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) It might be a good idea to take more time to reassess your next move in working out a complex situation. You could benefit from a new perspective on the matter.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You might want to consider making time to discuss a change of plans with everyone concerned. Be prepared to explain your actions. Also be prepared to listen to alternatives.

With Fall coming, the temperature change can be 30 to 50 degrees from early morning to mid afternoon so moisture condensation can build in your fuel tank and fuel systems. This can affect your vehicle’s performance and lead to extended crank times in the morning.

Ford Professional Technician’s Tip - Keep your tank full so there’s less room for moisture build-up.
