Final answer:

No, Thomas Jefferson's agrarian policy did not promote U.S. federal banks or financed industrial development in the northeastern states in the early 19th century.

Step-by-step explanation:

No, the statement is false. Thomas Jefferson's agrarian policy did not promote the creation of U.S. federal banks and did not finance industrial development in the northeastern states in the early 19th century. Jefferson believed in limited federal government and distrusted cities and industrialization.

He promoted agriculture and envisioned a rural republic of land-owning White men, or yeoman republican farmers.
