About this Page
I created this page first to be a single source for all the census, land record and
similar information that I come across for the Hostager farm. As a result, there is a lot of
interesting data about the farm and the people who lived on it. But, it is
short of any kind of introduction, conclusions or comments. I may write
something on this data in the future.
