Hensley Census Records - Mercer Co., KY Tax Lists 1789-1817
[Hensley Home] - [Census Records]
The tax lists include every white male over age 21 (or over 16), 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 Kentucky, land was also included on the tax list when applicable.
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. These were originally shared with me by Laura Schreibman. Recently I confirmed and added to her work by checking the original records via FamilySearch.org
