I'm going to assume that you mean the northerners of the United States. The northerners along the east coast got a lot of their income from sea trade, forestry, ship building, trapping, and the fishing industry in general. Northerners further inland were mostly trading, factories along rivers, and again forestry that provided many jobs of that, like wood carving. Over time industry took over and factories spread in the north and became one of the leading income providers for northerners, and was one of the reasons the North won the civil war.
