October 12 – Farmers in your family tree? Learn how to trace
them www.cyndislist.com/farming.
I have many Farmers in my family tree. At least prior to
1900, there were almost all Farmers. They may have had another trade, but they
also farmed.
Cyndi’s List led me to the BLM – The Bureau of Land Management; Patents. I tried see if my 3rd great grandfather, Thomas Goodwin was listed. Doc 25214 was found and it appears Thomas was granted 80 acres because of his Military Service.
Remember to have fun and Just do Genealogy!
