We found these extracts in a book of Tad EVANS newspaper clippings that concern our ancestor, George KING. Questions: 1. was George alive when these levies were made? 2. where would we find records that George did/did not pay off these levies that we are viewing as fines/debts? 3. what would cause George to have had so many levies against him? 4. what is the meaning of -----"for use of James BLACK"? Any and all help appreciated.
