Oral history interviews of the Atrisco Oral History Project, 1981-1984, (bulk 1984)

A 1790 census of the 223 inhabitants of the area listed their occupations as farmer, sheepherder, weaver and shoemaker. The Atrisco Oral History Project's goal was to document the changes in the area since the late 18th century. The interviews examine topics relating to the cultural and historical heritage of the Atrisco area. The importance of land, land grants, and the impact of Westland Development Corporation are discussed, as are themes of bilingual education, language, religion, and livelihood.
