ALLENs in the Buckingham County, VA, Personal Property Tax Records, 1782-1850 1 Aside from the probate records, and the marriage records, the annual Virginia county tax lists from 1782 on are probably the most genealogically valuable category of public records, provided they are carefully abstracted in full for each year, and interpreted correctly. These lists constitute a largely complete inventory of grown up Virginia males, and their appearances and disappearances from year to year, and associations by proximity in the meantime, can provide an excellent outline for a comprehensive surname research project. Two series of lists were begun in 1782: the land tax lists, and the personal property tax lists. The Land Tax Lists from 1782 The land tax lists simply noted the owner, the acreage, and the value of each tract of land, upon which a 1% ad valorem tax was imposed. Town lots were also enumerated and taxed according to their own standard rate. These land tax lists are especially valuable as an adjunct to the land records of the state and county because they are supposed to note changes of ownership, and as of 1814 two valuable additional pieces of information were included: whether the owner of the land was a resident of the county, and the distance and direction of the land from the county courthouse. The Personal Property Tax Lists, 1782-1786 The personal property tax lists continued the Revolutionary War poll tax on white males aged 21 and over, and extended the poll tax to slaves of all ages. [1] At the same time a standard statewide personal property tax was levied on horses, cattle, and certain luxury items and business appurtenances. The two different kinds of assessment information needed to implement these two kinds of taxes were combined in a single list which came to be called the personal property tax list. From 1782 through 1786 the county tax lists continued to be compiled by the militia captains for the households in their districts, and these compilations, usually alphabetized, were fair copied by the county clerk into a single consolidated list, a copy of which was returned to the state. Most of these county lists consist of a number of separate alphabetized sections, with each section representing a local neighborhood. The Personal Property Tax lists of 1787, and 1788 and beyond In 1786 the whole process of tax collection was subject to sweeping reform and standardization, to begin with the lists of 1787. The militia captains were replaced by county tax commissioners, from one to three for each county, and the county was divided into corresponding districts. The commissioners were tasked 1 This poll tax had nothing to do with voting: the more general meaning of poll tax is a tax by the person, or head.
ALLENs in the Buckingham County, VA, Personal Property Tax Records, 1782-1850 2 with canvassing their districts for the tax information in a systematic way, household by household. They were supposed to begin on March 10th of the year, and to record the actual date each household was visited. Each of the one to three lists were alphabetized, destroying evidence of closer neighborhood, but the recording of the dates the information was gathered from each household provides much more precise clues to neighborhood than the separate sections of the 1782-1786 county lists. The importance of neighborhood in an era when transportation was by foot, or via the family horse over narrow rutted roads, or mere bridle trails, can hardly be overemphasized. Moreover, in much of Virginia, the neighborhoods were further constrained by topography (mountains and rivers), and by the sheer size of each family s typical holdings anywhere from 100-400 acres being the norm. Also of great importance for the genealogist, in 1787 for the first (and as it turns out, only) time, all white male tithables aged 21 or over were to be listed by name, and adult dependents whose tax was paid by someone else were to be explicitly associated with the person who paid the tax. The greater efficiency of the tax collection process of 1787 probably accounts for the swift repeal of the poll tax retroactive to 1787, and the dropping of the tax on cattle. The tax commissioners evidently encountered their own problems because the genealogically useful requirement that all adult men aged 21+ be listed by name in association with the person who paid their tax, was also eliminated. Of equal importance for the interpretation of the lists from 1788 on, since the poll tax on whites was dropped, the age of the enumerated white male tithables in a household reverted from 21, to the perennial county age of 16. Tithables, Chargeables, Householders, and Polls I have put tithables in quotation marks because the term is ambiguous. I have elsewhere defined a Virginia tithable somewhat circularly as a person who appears on a county tax list either by name or enumeration as a nonexempt county tithable, but we may also say that in colonial Virginia white tithable generally meant an able-bodied white male resident of a particular county aged 16 or over, who was subject to county militia, road service, or for other local duties or taxes levied on his person, such as the parish levy. Because several of these county purposes had become anachronistic by 1782, because the county definitions of tithable could change from year to year, and because officials or infirm individuals could be exempted at discretion, when the term white male tithable appears in colony or state laws, it is best understood as referring to a class of persons defined, not in the statutes themselves, but at the county level, and it s indefinite meaning complicates the interpretation of the personal property tax lists. It is of the first importance to understand the distinction between tithables, chargeables, and householders. Most of the time a person whose name appears on a tax list is all three, but formally, except for the year 1787,
ALLENs in the Buckingham County, VA, Personal Property Tax Records, 1782-1850 3 those listed by name on a personal property tax list are persons chargeable for a tax for themselves as tithables, and/or for any other tithables or taxable personal property associated with their household. Thus, most chargeables are also householders, but they need not be tithables themselves, as they might in an exempt category: officials, widows, or men excused on application by virtue of age or infirmity. From 1782-1787 white male tithables aged 21 or over were also subject to a statewide poll tax not a tax related to voting, but a tax by the poll, or head, much like the county tithables tax. I use the word poll consistently hereinafter to distinguish this subset of county tithables. For a fuller explication of this subject, and more background on the county and colony legislative history of taxation, see my Virginia Tithables, Chargeables, and the Annual Tax Lists. Summary, Virginia Tax Law Changes Respecting Tithables and Personal Property Tax Lists before 1778 - white male tithables age could vary but generally set at 16+ (16 and over) 1778 - white male tithables of 21+ became subject to 5 shilling poll tax 1782-1786 - only white male tithables 21+ included, as polls; slaves also taxed as polls; personal property (horses, cattle, etc.) taxed at the state level 1787 - only white male tithables 21+ included, as polls tax bumped to 10 shillings per head; tax info collected by itinerant tax commissioners, and dates recorded 1788 on - white male tithables age reverts to 16+ as state poll tax is abolished in 1788 Inferential Rules, and Rules of Thumb for Interpreting Tax List Data The first rule is to understand the category of persons listed by name. To repeat from above: Except for the year 1787, those listed by name on a personal property tax list are persons chargeable for a tax for themselves as tithables, and/or for any other tithables or taxable personal property associated with their household. Thus, most chargeables are also householders, but they need not be tithables themselves, as they might in an exempt category: officials, widows, or men excused on application by virtue of age or infirmity. For the period, 1782-1787 those listed by name were aged 21 or over. In 1787, uniquely, all non-exempt white males aged 21 or over were listed by name, not just chargeables, and if they were not chargeable for their own poll tax, they were listed in association with the person who was.
ALLENs in the Buckingham County, VA, Personal Property Tax Records, 1782-1850 4 From 1788 on, a chargeable might be a male as young as 16, though most minor males were associated with the household of another who was chargeable for their tax most likely the household of their father or widowed mother (or if married, perhaps their father-in-law), or that of a guardian or master, if they were apprenticed. A few of these lists state relationships directly, but more often they provide merely rather strong circumstantial evidence of relationships. By analyzing all the lists for a series of years one can pretty reliably tell within a year or so when a person died and/or removed to another county, or when a young man turned 21, or 16, and in the latter case, who his father (or widowed mother) was likely to be. Of crucial importance are the dates the tax was gathered for the lists of 1787 on, because when multiple chargeables with the same surname all have their information gathered on the same day, it almost always reflects close neighborhood, and therefore probably close relationship. Where an established chargeable with a particular surname is joined on the tax list one year by another person of the same surname, and the gathering dates are the same or close, the new person is likely to be a son just come of age; this circumstantial evidence becomes even more persuasive if the number of the established person s white male tithables aged 16-20 decreases by one in the same year. Sometimes the evidence for father-son relationships becomes more complicated, as when a son will be listed as a chargeable one year, but revert to a member of his father s household the next. One needs to pay close attention to the fluctuating numbers of white male tithables and try to match up the numbers each year to the known sons, bearing in mind that most sons came into land from or near that of their fathers, and often continued to a share a household with him for a while even after coming of age or marrying. Even during the period from 1782-1787 when the state poll tax was in effect, a household might consist of several free adult males, each subject to the tax, but (except for 1787) only one of them would be named. For example, in 1785 a 22 year old son living with his father, and a free adult hired man in the same household would have been themselves responsible for their own poll tax, but despite the requirements of the law that the commissioners... call on every person subject to taxation it might well be that only the chargeable s name would appear on the list, leaving the details of payment to be worked out between the chargeable and his/her charges. In general, important as the personal property tax records are, their evidence doesn t stand on its own: it needs to be corroborated by other records by the corresponding land tax records and the land records themselves, or by the probate or other court records.
ALLENs in the Buckingham County, VA, Personal Property Tax Records, 1782-1850 5 The Abstracts SOURCES: Where my source has been the online Binns Genealogy tax list images, I have appended to each entry a Citation referencing the Binns list denominator ( A, B, or C ), and an image number. Otherwise, it may be assumed that my source was a Library of Virginia, or an LDS Family History Library microfilm of the original records, in which case I have made this clear in the headnote for the report. In this report the BuckinghamCoVA personal property tax lists have been abstracted from Binns for the years 1782-1809, and from the following LVA microfilms for the indicated years: BuckinghamCoVA Personal Property Tax Lists, 1811-1826: Reel 61 BuckinghamCoVA Personal Property Tax Lists, 1827-1841: Reel 62 BuckinghamCoVA Personal Property Tax Lists, 1842-1852: Reel 61 Abstracting Conventions The lists are essentially complete from 1782 on, except for 1808 when no tax was assessed, and for the 1816 lists, which are missing. As with the land tax records, for each year from 1787 on, there were two lists, presumably corresponding to Districts 1 and 2, yet for certain years (1811-1812) I find lists instead titled No.3" (corresponding to Land Tax List 1), and No.2" (corresponding to Land Tax List 2). Based on the correspondence of names, I have titled all these paired lists, List1" and List2", respectively, to synchronize their numbering with the numbering of the other personal property lists, and of the land tax lists (note that the Binns citations to Lists A and B don t necessarily correspond to List 1 and List 2). Most list titles do bear intrinsic dates, ratifying the years given in the microfilm titles. I have rearranged the fields somewhat, and created my own columnar headings. In particular, the columns for the enumeration of slaves are headed Blacks whether they were taxed as polls (as between 1782-1787), or as personal property (from 1788 on). Incidentally, slaves were more often termed blacks in the statutes of this period than slaves. From 1788 on, the headings for the white males tithables enumeration vary considerably, and the age limit is typically omitted, but one may reasonably presume that in all cases the number in the first column of each row is that of the white males aged 16 or over residing in the household of the person listed by name. I have therefore titled this first column WhiteMTs 16+ (white male tithables aged 16 or over) regardless of the varied titles which appear on the original form.
ALLENs in the Buckingham County, VA, Personal Property Tax Records, 1782-1850 6 Otherwise, all the text abstracted below is literal, except that I have generally expanded unproblematic abbreviations like deceased, estate, and commissioner, silently, and other abbreviations for proper names, or more doubtful terms, within square brackets, for example, W[illia]m. Occasionally I have preserved the original abbreviation when I myself found it expedient due to space constraints. All names below also appear in inverted order (with surname first), which the way that most of them appear in the original records. Columns of numbers in which a zero was entered have been left blank. Besides the categories for white and black persons, I have abstracted all taxable personal property on the lists through 1815, but only the livestock thereafter, except that I have noted when the chargeable was taxed for a carriage as a marker of socioeconomic status. In the lists from 1787 on, the notation 1 chair. or 2 chair. is used to represent either 1 carriage or 2 carriage wheels. From 1789 on I have abstracted such notations as simply carriage Later, other, more specific terminology for carriages appears, which I have noted as found: a gig was a simple open two-wheeled carriage, while a barouche was a much more elaborate fur-wheeled carriage with facing seats and a partial top in effect, a light coach. A phaeton was like a barouche without a top. Beginning in 1845, carriages were distinguished only by value so I have noted their values for those late lists. Individuals were also taxed for watches, clocks, and a few other luxury goods which I have not noted, but these and the actual tax valuations and tax rates (which I have also omitted), are available from the complete set of images provided with this report. The Data in this Report The formats of the earliest surviving personal property tax lists for Buckingham County, Virginia, from the period 1782-1786, change practically every year. In 1787 two tax districts were created and the lists were standardized, at least for that year. However, beginning with 1788, the format diverged between these two, with List 2 adopting the usual post-1787 format, but List 1 retaining the named white tithables category, which continues through 1801. Since this second named field drops the age specification (in 1787 the column is headed white male tithables above 21"), and since the tithables age after 1787 in effect reverts to the county age of 16, presumably the names listed in this column (typically headed free tithes ) are those of free white males aged 16 or over. Unfortunately, none of the men listed in this column are surnamed ALLEN, which implies that if any ALLEN sons came of age between 1787-1801 they were treated as heads of independent households, and not as dependents of their fathers (or of ALLEN guardians, if any). I didn t scan the whole of these lists looking for ALLENs in the named free tithes column, just the surnames in the A s, so it s possible that I may have missed an ALLEN or two for this period who harbored in other than ALLEN households.
ALLENs in the Buckingham County, VA, Personal Property Tax Records, 1782-1850 7 Many, if not most of these lists lack titles, but since the two lists, once they diverge, are readily identifiable, I have simply identified them as List1" and List2" in the headings, and have transcribed only a few of the list titles. From 1787 on, all lists are alphabetized by first letter of surname so that neighborhood associations cannot generally be inferred from proximity on the list except insofar as chargeables of the same surname are listed in clusters. However, also beginning in 1787 the lists are supposed to include the dates the information was gathered from each family as the tax commissioner made his rounds, and most of the lists in fact have these dates. Finally, although herein my focus was exclusively on ALLENs, because there have been more than one marriage between ALLENs and SCRUGGSes, and one of special interest in 1819, I included all the county tax records for SCRUGGSes for the year 1820 (even though the father in law of Mariah Scruggs was supposed to have been Edward from adjacent CumberlandCo). ******** * 1782 * ******** Most of these lists are unalphabetized, including the only one of eight with ALLENs: A List of taxable articles taken in Buckingham County by John Nicholas 1782" Person Persons 21+ WhiteMTs Slaves Horses Cattle Chargeable Free males & Slaves 21+ BINNS Allen, William Allen, William 1 3 04L Allen, Mary D.C.

Although this list is alphabetized just on first letter surname, William Jr s entry is sandwiched between that of William Hunt, and Samuel-03 (By Samuel-03" I mean the Samuel who appears on image 3. There is a second, undifferentiated Samuel who appears on image 4). Incidentally, Samuel-03 was assessed for 1 wheeled carriage ( 1 chair. ), which may be used as a differentiator. Samuel-03's total number of tithables is four greater than his slaves, yet he has only one tithable aged 21+, presumably himself; one might suppose that the extra three tithables were more likely sons aged 16-20 than underaged indentured servants, except that in the identically structure 1785 census none of these three extras are present. Unfortunately, one can only guess at the meanings of these non-standard county categories.

John Allen s name is replicated in the second column, but his household is shown as having no tithables, with no annotation that he personally is exempt. I ve included the next household, for Joseph Adcock, because it illustrates how exemptions were treated. It figures, therefore, that John, though reckoned as a householder and a person chargeable as the owner of taxable personal property, was himself still under 21, thus technically not subject to be listed this year, and technically his property should have been in the hands of his parent or guardian as the person chargeable. However, this case illustrates the fact that the commissioners cared nothing for such legal niceties as long as they found someone whom they believed was good for the tax. * 1787-List2 * A list of taxable property within the District No.2 Josias James commissioner in the County of Buckingham for the year 1787" Date Person WhiteMale WhiteMTs----- Blacks----- Horses Cattle 1787 Chargeable Tithables 21+ 21+ 16-20 16+ 12-15 BINNS 28Apr Allen, Samuel Samuel Allen 1 7 13 6 11 B02
