LePard Brothers, old time musicians

Notes:

The "Horseradish Twins" were Floyd LePard, on fiddle, and Roscoe LaPard, on mandolin, who played old-timey music for square dances for over 40 years. The bachelor farmers operated a small truck farm in Grand Rapids Township. They also made their own horseradish, which they sold to local grocers. Because the brothers looked so much alike, the grocers called them the "Horseradish Twins."
