"backcountry family " is rather hard to define precisely. I would say that Andrew Jackson, Milllard Fillmore, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln , Andrew Johnson and Harry Truman might be said to come from backcountry families. Martin VanBuren, James Garfield , Herbert Hoover , Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon , Gerald Ford and Bil Clinton also have some claim to a backcountry familiy, I think. Maybe even Jimmy Carter.

What are facts about the backcountry?
Life was hard for settlers of the backcountry. The rocky uneven land made farming difficult. There were few rivers on which to transport goods. The Piedmont couldn't be reached by water,and colonists had to travel by land following trails made by the Native Americans.Most people who settled the backcountry made houses from roughly cut logs. Many people carried rifles wherever they went and spent most of the day hunting. While life was hard,there were families who became wealthly.Two United States Presidents,James K.Polk and Andrew Jackson,came from families that settled the backcountry Hope This Helps Ya! xD
Why was the clan system more important to people of the backcountry than to those who lived on the seaboard of the southern colonies?
