Yeomen lived in the South before 1860 primarily because they were small-scale farmers who owned their own land. They were self-sufficient and practiced subsistence agriculture, which was common in the rural South during that time. Yeomen often did not own enslaved individuals, unlike larger plantation owners, and they played a significant role in the Southern economy.

Before 1860, yeomen in the South were small landowners who primarily relied on subsistence farming and cultivated their own crops, such as corn and tobacco. They typically owned a modest amount of land and, unlike plantation owners, did not depend on enslaved labor, although some might have employed a few enslaved people or hired laborers. Their lifestyle was characterized by hard work and self-sufficiency, often living in simple homes and forming tight-knit communities. Yeomen played a crucial role in the southern economy, providing food and goods for local markets.
In 1860, about 32% of Southern families owned slaves, but the total percentage of the population in the South that owned slaves was around 25%. This means that a significant portion of the Southern population did not own slaves.
