Hensley Census Records - Buckingham Co., VA Tax Lists 1773-1826


[Hensley Home] - [Census Records] - Buckingham Co., VA


The "Personal Property" tax lists include every white male over age 16 (or over 21), referred to as polls, tithes, tithables, etc. The number of horses, cattle and slaves are also included on the lists. The columns vary somewhat from year to year. In some cases I condense the columns especially if they are not applicable. Refer to the originals to see what I might have left out.


In the table below I'll include the tax list data using the original spellings. The last column will be comments or a link to the web page for that family or person. I abstracted these tax listings from original records which I viewed myself via Binns Virginia Tax List Club. It's a subscription service which is well worth the modest cost. Certain tax years are available free.


Some of the entries came from the excellent book: Crouse, Randy F. McNew, "Personal Property Tax Lists of Buckingham County, Virginia 1764-1792", 2017. It’s my understanding there is a volume two available now as well with tax lists into the early 1800's. I haven’t seen that one, but I suspect it’s just as good as the first.
