Margery, The tax books are in the attic at the Louisa County Courthouse. I looked through them for some family info from 1847 to 1861 and I know there were some later books there.

What is the situation for researching tax lists for the period 1840 to 1890? Are all the tax records in one place? Where would that be? I am trying to narrow down the date of death for FRANKLIN GRISWOLD who owned land in Louisa County between 1846 and 1887 and possibly beyond. I would like to find him and/or his heirs on the tax lists if possible. Thanks, Margery ==== IALOUISA Mailing List ==== SUPPORT ROOTSWEB! HELP KEEP GENEALOGY AFFORDABLE. SUBSCRIBE TODAY!!
