What are the classes of people in the 1800s?

Answer 1

There were several classifications under upper and lower classes in the 1800s. The highest group were those who were considered to be the aristocracy of the United States, these were wealthy, educated men, many of whom were the Founding Fathers. Next came the landed gentry, although not on the same level as the east coast aristocracy, they still had enough wealth to afford a very genteel lifestyle. Next were the members of the lower, working classes and the small farmers. Though not necessarily destitute, they still have to work very hard to provide the necessities for them and their families. The next lower class encompassed the indentured servants and the landless. These people were just a step above slaves, and had no income until the debt they were working off had been paid in full. At the bottom of the hierarchy were the slaves who had no income, no social status, and in many ways weren't even considered to be human beings.
