Arizona WPA Pioneer Interviews |
|
|
|
|
|
Did you know that the Works Project Administration (WPA)
put many people to work interviewing early pioneers in Arizona? Are you
asking if these records are available? Jeannie Rogers, a fellow
genealogist, and I are creating an index of the data from the Arizona WPA
records. We had originally set out to glean the names, birth dates, birth
locations, and other genealogy-specific data, and get this published in a
couple of days. Well, as we started reading the stories, we got engrossed
in reading the stories of hardship, indian raids, outlaws, and courage
that it has taken more than just a couple days to collect the information.
Biographical Sketches & Pioneer Interviews
If you think you have found an ancestor on the list and the information
is not included on these pages, you can get the information by contacting
the Arizona
History and Archives Division of the Arizona Department of Library,
Archives and Public Records.
