TK presents The Great Depression posted at Before My Time. This is a wonderful entry that I urge everyone to read. Amazing information and details here. Please take a moment to read this wonderful story.

Janice Brown presents Where Were You During the Great Depression? posted at Cow Hampshire. Janice wasn’t even a twinkle in her father’s eye during this time. Her blog entry is a wonderful piece that I’m sure many will enjoy for years to come. As usual, great work Janice!

Miriam Robbins Midkiff presents AnceStories: The Stories of My Ancestors: Ancestors in the 1930 U.S. Federal Census - Part 12 posted at AnceStories: The Stories of My Ancestors, saying, “This is the 12th of a 16-part series of where my ancestors lived when the 1930 U.S. Federal Census was taken…in other words, where they lived during the Great Depression. Links to the other 11 parts are given at the bottom of the post.”

Jessica Oswalt presents My Family and the Great Depression …posted at Jessica’s Genejournal. Jessica wasn’t around for the great depression either, but she has family that was. Take a look at her entry!

  1. I didn’t enter the carnival because I wasn’t alive at that time. My parents were.

  2. Hi Lori!
    Please don’t let that stop you from entering the carnival! We ask where were you..but that means your ancestral line, not you in particular. :-)
    Our next one is Where were you during the Civil War…we’d love hear about your ancestors during the civil war…even if they didn’t fight during the war….
