The Homestead Act of May 20, 1862, created a program of public land grants for the small farmers in America. The Homestead Act allowed the people of the U.S. to claim up to 160 free acres of federal land in the western part of the country. The freed slaves could claim for a piece of land in that territory. In the end, almost 1.6 million of individual claims were approved.
