Title: | Digital Archive INDEX: Longtown Land Tax records |
Place name: | Ewyas Lacy, Longtown, Clodock |
Date: | 1783-1838 |
Description:
Photographs of the Land Tax records for Longtown for 1783 to 1838 can be reached from this index page.
Data for some individual years is not present in the archive, and may not have been originally recorded. The Land Tax Assessments show the names of the proprietor and occupier and the amount of the tax assessed, but the column on the forms intended to identify the property is generally either not filled in or contains a generic description such as ‘messuage’ rather than specific property names.
Observations:
Specific property names can often be discovered by cross referencing the names of property owners and tenants shown in land tax records with Manorial Court Rolls, Manorial Surveys and/or other registers of leases and rentals.
