Program topic: Polls, Personalty and Property - Making Sense of Tax Lists

Somebody had to pay government's bills, and they did it through the law by imposing taxes on polls, personal property and real property. The records of those taxes offer some of the best clues available to our ancestors, their families and their neighborhoods.
