The 1779 property tax list for Perquimans is now posted (scanned images) at: http://perqtax.homestead.com/ The 1779 list has some 300 names, showing amounts and valuations of land, slaves, cattle, horses, and money in each household. Several entries include additional details about orphans, deceased fathers, and marital status ("maried" or single). Head of household names are transcribed, but not in alphabetical order. And the taxman's handwriting is large and easy to read for once. Later this summer I'll post scans from 1771, the 1760s, and the late 1790s. Enjoy, and happy hunting. Harold Colson San Diego, CA
