If you enjoy the history of rural South Georgia during the Great Depression, you’ll enjoy this site. I’m using Library of Congress images, as well as feedback and personal items from people related to the Irwinville Farms Project. Irwinville Farms was one of many Farm Security Administration resettlement communities, and we’re quite lucky to have the large visual archive that we do to document the common folk of the 1930s. I love looking at the images, and I think you will, too. [The photograph above was made in May 1938 by John Vachon: "Rolling a cigarette. Irwinville Farms, Georgia."]
