説明

The role off farm laborers has received little attention from economic historians studying the United States. Scholars have concentrated on slavery in the South and the family farm in the North, and on industrial laborers in the factory. When farm laborers were mentioned, they were simply described as workers on the first rung of the agricultural ladder, who would soon climb to be farm operators. It is therefore the purpose of this paper to throw light on this neglected element in the agricultural history of the nineteenth century. We will focus on the farm laborers on a family farm in New York, and examine their conditions of employment, the nature of their work, the level of their wages, and the methods by which they were paid. The records of manuscript censuses will also be consulted. It will be shown that hamily farms depended on farm laborers to a considerable degree and that such workers therefore had an essential role to play in rural society.
