Engstrom, Floyd - Floyd Engstrom was born in Bremerton, Washington in 1918. His father was from Sweden, and his mother was from Wisconsin. His family moved to the Duvall, Washington area, and Floyd took violin lessons in school. In the 1930's he learned tunes from a local old time fiddler and started playing for country dances. “We played for dances at an old one room school house that didn't have school in it any more, and we had gasoline lanterns for light, no electricity in the area.” The band usually included two fiddles, trumpet, piano, and Hawaiian guitar. They played waltzes, foxtrots, schottisches, polkas, the Varsouvianna, the Tuxedo, and the Circle Two-Step.
