Hi List, Was there an age limit on the personal property tax lists for VA during 1790-1800? My GGGGGgrandfather is not listed on the 1790 Henry Co VA tax list and he should be. He was born about 1722-1724, would he have been considered too old and free from person tax? Thanks. Teresa Stuart de Rios

The Governors, Legislature and the Circuit (and higher) Courts in VA have always had the authority to exempt anyone from any certain taxe when conditions or circumstances required such action.
