Yes, federal records can be useful for reconstructing and mapping rural communities too. This session will cover lesser-used federal resources, including records of the Southern Claims Commission and U.S. Court of Claims, Freedmen’s Bureau, Works Project Administration, and Internal Revenue Service, providing practical techniques for integrating these and similar materials into your neighborhood research.
