'Down on the Farm: Records to Document Your Farming Ancestor'

'Down on the Farm: Records to Document Your Farming Ancestor'

Presented by Pikes Peak Genealogical Society at Online/Virtual Space

Up to about 1870, farming was the number-one occupation. You probably have a large number of farmers in your family. There many record sets that document our farming ancestors such as land, tax, and probate records. Newspapers and many agricultural records can add context to their story.

Researching for over 20 years, Lisa Gorrell specializes in southern states and Texas; western states of California, Montana, and Oregon; 18th- and 19th-century German and Swedish research. She is currently a board member and volunteer at Contra Costa County Historical Society History Center in Martinez, California.
