I came here with nothing. I will leave this earth with nothing. But it’s an amazing journey. Life is fun. Worked 44 years. Bible says A man is to earn his pay by the sweat in our brow. 2 back surgeries 2 knee surgeries Cut half in two over A lodged kidney stone. Worn out flat feet. Live in pain.. but to date I guess I have mastered the art of working myself to death. “ Have You lived here all Your life?” My answer “Not yet”😂
My grandmother lived in Alabama during this time on a farm. She said the Depression came an went and they didn’t realize how bad it was. Food was plentiful, they raised cows and hogs, crops. They didn’t have much before, during or after!
I heard that same story from a gentleman in New Brockton AL. back in the summer of 1992. He told me that folks around that area never had a whole lot so they never felt the effects of the depression.
@maltesemommabark5147 it certainly is true that people everywhere are much less self-sufficient. I wonder how many people in the street could start a camp fire without matches?
Your passion for finding and posting these pictures, is a blessing for those of us who can appreciate history. For me, I find the early 1900s thru the 1950s as the most interesting time period, with inventions and technology increasing at a tremendous rate, and it was just a simpler time.
Goodness, what terrible poverty. Thank you for posting these reminders of just how difficult life was for so many during the Great Depression. Very sobering photos!
I have been researching my family for over 40 years and a few years ago I learned that some of members had been migrant workers during the Great Depression and, according to the 1930 Census, some were berry pickers around Hammond and Ponchatoula. This had never been discussed in the family before. Thanks for these pictures that put a face on that period, and makes me thankful that I have always had a permanent home and stability.
1:03 My grandmother said that’s how people traveled cross country back in the 1920’s, 1930’s. You didn’t have Hampton Inn or even a Pines Motor Lodge or such. There wasn’t anyplace to stay. So they would usually see a good farm and ask the farmer if it was ok to camp on his land. Sometimes they would pay the farmer a little money. The men would sleep on the ground and the women slept in the car. They had a Coleman stove and a cooler for food and they cooked supper and breakfast on the tailgate. They weren’t poor or migrants, just regular decent middle class, but that’s how they traveled on road trips.
I come from a family of seamstreses and my great grandmother used to follow many of these people thru the south mending and sewing their garments. Everyone was busy trying to survive and that's how they did it. They lived in tents and followed people around the south at least 8 months out of a year,
@ History Stuff, I enjoy your videos of past times. I grew up in the 1950s in the area out of Crowley. My grandparents were rice farmers that were living fairly comfortable for the times. But I heard many stories how they were well off until the Great Depression wiped them out and they never regained their wealth. As a kid I never realized how devastating those times were. I just remember the good times at grandma’s house. I absolutely love learning about historical facts and do a lot of reading and searching on my own. Great channel, thank you. Ms Lou
I’m amazed that both sets of my grandparents made it through the Great Depression. My paternal GPs had 10 children and my maternal ones had 9. Both sides were from rural North Georgia. Thanks for the haunting, poignant images.
Thank you very much for posting this. I live around New Orleans and have had ancestors in Southeast Louisiana since the middle of the 18th century. This photo compilation is fascinating, and I've been to many of these places in my travels. I will be sharing this with many of my family members. Thanks again.
Awesome channel. Love the old pics. What a beautiful bunch of people. Thank you for the upload. I hope this reaches you and those you love in great health and happiness❤️🙏 Subscribed🫡
Wow, That first picture looked my Grandparents from the 60's. They lived in N.E. Tx. Got married about 1915 had 12 kids. Made a small living off the land. We have nostalgic feelings about the old days. If you really lived it, I don't think you would feel nostalgic, just happy you survived.
Remember Louisiana was sold by the French cell settled by the French the ones that went pledge allegiance to Canada I would not pledge allegiance to Canada to a British so the women and children were sent by boat to Louisiana and the man middle age boys had to walk so there by which that's why there are so capable and tough
It is amazing how well we live now, as compared to then. The next generation from 2020 will never know how hard their ancestors had it. Thank you for sharing these photos and thank you to the families, organizations, etc. that shared. Shalom😊
I grew up around Jeanerette and now live right outside of New Iberia. Life must have been very difficult for people back then, especially without electricity and air conditioning. Tough old people.
I know about half of these places, born in far northeastern, Louisiana. Winnsboro. New Iberia has many relatives from there. All of my grandparents and my parents have all passed on. I would love to go back just to see what the town looks like now. I have lived in Texas most of my life.But home is always home.
What suprised me most (my own old family photos from North Mississippi not much different) was the photos in stores and cafes of ordinary people (excluding field workers and farmers) all in clean, pressed shirts and khakis. Do you have any idea how incredibly difficult it would have been to do laundry outdoors then ironing with the infamous "Sad" iron heated with coals? The only thing worse than being a housewife back then would have been working in the cane fields.
Interesting and also SAD video but I enjoyed it and will share it with family! I live next to Paradis....and used to spend some summers over in Hammond as a child! Step great grandfather was a strawberry tenement farmer and grew lots of other veggies also! Another grandma was born and raised in Pointe Coupee parish then moved to the NOLA area...very nice video! Thanks for sharing! ❤️😘👍😍
The adage adversity builds character is still true today most people just complain . I was a commercial fisherman when was a young man and starting off was tough work but it paid off with some sweat and calluses on my hands from using a bull rake I made a living and learned to take the lumps like navigating thru the ice when narragansett bay froze up and working in rough water or recovering my rig when it sunk in a gale. I'm old and retired now But I still see the younger guys coming into the business and mostly all of them have the right stuff. These guys are the future for the industry and hard luck when it comes will make you stronger and smarter. Will power is an amazing thing it can move mountains.
My grandma up here in Arkansas told me that exact same thing. She canned polk salat, blackberries, black eyed peas and such. If the pear tree was loaded, she made pear preserves. She said we never stood in a soup line, and I'll add... No EBT !!!
My fathers side of the family scraped by out of the dust bowl by working in the Texas Panhandle oil fields. They were poor but better off than many during the dirty thirties. We had family in Oklahoma and Louisiana. I have Dad's grandparents wedding certificate from Oklahoma Territory. Sadly we lost touch with those family in Louisiana.
Thank you for a great video, I just subscribed! No intrusive comments, fascinating subject matter and lovely music. I wonder if the men sitting by the train tracks are just waiting on the train to bring 'em a breeze, which is very rare here in LA in the summer. Perhaps they were heading north looking for work. I had no idea that the industrious people of LA made things out of moss! Sending love from Louisiana ❤
Actually, if you read old newspapers articles from back in the day, the Springhill area didn't suffer at all during this time because they were self sufficient. When you don't need government it becomes irrelevant.
Growing up during the Great Depression in Louisiana, a man told me his family had no money even for a chocolate bar to divide for his siblings. He later became a dentist.
YEAH, I'D TRADE TODAY'S LIFE ON THE BAYOU FOR BACK THEN...IN A HEARTBEAT. "LIFE ON THE BAYOU" NOW IS BASICALLY A DISTANT MEMORY. WE ARE OVER BUILT, WHAT LITTLE CULTURE WE HAVE IS BARELY HANGING ON BY AN OLD, WORN OUT THREAD, WE LOST THE LANGUAGE, OUR INNOCENTS, THE SOLITUDE, THE TRADITIONS, THE LAND....THE LIST IS ENDLESS.
The U.S. was different than this by the time I was born in 1970. The last generation in my family that looked like and lived like this was my mom's parents who were born in 1907. By their 40's, they were living in broken down shack house with tall grass because no one mowed their yard then. This was in the 1950's. My life has been a lot different than that.
I got to tell you folks, I picked strawberries one summer when I was a teen. Strawberry season last only a few weeks. June. Not much income for those people.
There is another part of Louisiana that you forgot and that is north and central Louisiana. Depression affected these people also and they are overlooked and forgotten.
That mother of three on the porch swing was definitely hacked off about something. Seems to be glaring at the camera; Maybe she hadn't given permission to be photographed.
We are in a depression right now and it's gonna get worse if we get another Biden in office. Food,gas,goods is way up and meanwhile the pay is still the same old scale sitting in the bottom of the bucket. It's sad we don't have righteous good government and state officials leading our country nowadays for our people. Houma La.
HOUMA (BAYOU BLUE) HERE ALSO, AND YOU ARE RIGHT ! AND YOU KNOW THAT DOWN HERE, THE PEOPLE BACK THEN WERE SAYING..."DEPRESSION ? WHAT DEPRESSION ?" NOBODY STARVED AROUND HERE ! THE "POOR FOLKS DOWN HERE" ATE A BETTER THAN THE "RICH FOLKS UP THERE." A LOT BETTER !
Back when people were tough & resilient & honourable. Look at what we have today. I’d give anything to go back to these times. Society today is a joke.
Look at the squalor. No wonder the fit young men were lining up to join the WWII military. Three squares, clean clothes, good barracks, modern transport. Getting ready to fight was as good as finding a kind, rich uncle. Uncle Sam.
Careful what you wish for, Biden’s comatose “woke” transformationalist has America on a pathway to the Gates of Hell. Media and Washington D.C. mis Representitives are struggling mightily to find an expressway and a crow bar 🔥 2024 Status Quo = Decimation, denigrating and the accelerated dismantling of America. 2024 Trump MAGA = Preservation, Correction, and Restoration of the “United” States and The once “One Nation Under God” 🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻
We all need these reminders, cause when you have no earthly goods, I believe your priority can then be in the right place, and you then worship the creator, not THINGS. We are and have been a very blessed nation, and most of us have no ideal what it was like to have had nothin. But as the bible says, what has been, will be again. And the way things look, we may very well experience worse than this. God help us all, and keep our focus on what's really important and what really matters . America has left the God that caused her to flourish, and sin has taken hold and it will produce its own fruit. We must repent and turn back to the God of Abraham, Isaac and jacob.
4:13 all those were deplorable looking and that who was a grower and picking his own even the luxury to work on his farm like he was to meet his girlfriend instead the 🍓 70 years latter and still any are in the limbo
I love all the photgraphs documenting the obscene examples of the excesses of White privilege. I grew up in the uber wealthy land known as Appalachia, and from experience there's nothing more indulgent than the sting of a welfare Christmas!
Can't look the same today. The people are different. The outside world encroached every waking minute. Those in deep poverty (as most of these folks appear to be) would not tolerate a world outside flush with plenty, while they remain desperately poor, and poor in opportunities. It was a simpler, more encapsulated world.
Proper management is the key. Take me for example. Way back 76 years ago, I started out with nothing, and I've still got most of it left.
Join the crowd.
My Daddy was born in 1927 and always told me " The Good Lord most have loved poor folks cause he sure made a lot of us"

I came here with nothing. I will leave this earth with nothing.

Life is fun.
Worked 44 years.

Cut half in two over A lodged kidney stone.
Worn out flat feet.

Fascinating photos of some tough country folk who never ever quit. Much respect.
sooner than you think America will be going through this again,but harder because many do not have the skills as before.
