Finding Records to Help Document Your Farming Ancestors

Free Hybrid Meeting
In-person: City of Carlsbad Faraday Administration Building, Room 173B, no registration needed.
Via Zoom: Register at https://nsdcgs.org/program-meetings/
Up to about 1900, farming was the number one occupation. Nearly ten million Americans were engaged in some agricultural endeavor, from farmers, dairymen, florists, and gardeners to stock raisers, with the majority as farmers or farm laborers. You probably have many farmers in your family. This presentation will cover those records you already use (census, deeds, probate, tax records) but also focus on how to get the most out of them to tell your farmer’s story. The second half of the presentation will cover resources that can add context to the farming family story.
