Dave, who is also a singer and who raises dogs, in the course of his homestead research visited with homesteaders in a number of eastern states and corresponded with homesteaders in almost every area of the country and Canada. The bulk of his information came from New England. Dave currently is looking for land in New England with the view of later building his own home there.
