My brothers and 1st cousins are 4th generation, our family was also one of the first settlers in our area. Every generation other than the 1st has had a least one person in the marriage have a job off of the place to supplement farming and cows thru the tough times. My Grandfather supplied every restaurant and grocery store in the area with eggs and cream, plus my Grandma raised turkeys to sell. My Dad drove school bus for years and my Mom is a nurse, all the brothers and their wives have worked at different times, either trucking in the winter, trimming feet, or in the oil patch...so far its worked for over 100 years
