Extractions: Jean Carhart's Web Site 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. 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.
