What is the lifestyle of yeoman farmers?
Yeomen farmers lived wherever they could purchase ten acres or so of areable land to support their family on subsistence farming. Generally half their cultivation was in food for the family and half in forage for animals. They often experimented with cash crops or products such as whisky to generate cash. Because so much work has to be done in so short a time, sometimes neighbors gathered for harvesting, sometimes hired hands (slave or free) helped. Although both the North and South had white populations of about 85% living on family farms, yeomen farms were not generally located amidst slavery and large plantations. Southern yeomen farmers were usually found in upland Piedmont and valley counties, away from the coast and major river arteries. Especially in the North, with the transportation and industrial revolution that evolved in the early 1800s, marketing of their crops, and machinery allowed a farmer and his sons the ability to be self-sufficient.
