    1. Re: [LDR] Nabb Center

    3. Pursuant to what Elizabeth suggested, I spent a great deal of time this past winter (at home; at night) going through the Sussex County Tax Lists contained in Microfilm Rolls 001 - 008, purchased from the DE Archives, which covered the period from ~ 1767 through ~ 1861. I found them extremely helpful in placing people, and especially enjoyed and found helpful the occasional tax assessor's comment like "gon to sea" or "moved to Ohio" or "gon to Caintucky" or "died". I was lucky to have found many entries on the people I was researching, and highly recommend their use (to those who have very good eyes, and lots of time). As I went through the films, I kept a running list of which of what was on each roll, in order. I'd be happy to email this to anyone who is interested.

Could I go there and search only in a specific area? Or do I have to go through everything in there until I get to what I am looking for? I know my Lynches were from around the Selbyville/Milford/Roxana area per a conversation with my grandfather (who was born in Clarkesville) many years ago. I want to search the tax records, I guess. I can't find any evidence that they owned any land but I know they farmed and I am sure they had to pay taxes. I cannot figure out any other way to look for them. So far, there is nothing. Any suggestions? Thanks for any input, Teresa *************************************** QUESTIONS about POSTING GUIDELINES, SUBSCRIBING or UNSUBSCRIBING?
