Financing Wars: 18th- and 19th-Century Federal Tax Records
by Diane Richard
When researching pre-twentieth-century ancestors, it’s easy to focus on locally created tax records – city/town, county, state, or others – which typically focus on land and/or males and enslaved. Your ancestors may have had federal tax obligations. Have you checked? We’ll discuss various federal taxes levied in the late 1700s to early 1900s, most of which were to finance wars. Since income was just one item being taxed, you may learn about your family’s luxury goods and more.
A professional genealogist for twenty years, Diane Richard focuses on North Carolina and other southern states.
