Va. 1782 Personal Property Tax List: Charles Patteson's list, dated 10 April 1782 [Notes: This list probably taken along or near Wreck Island Creek in what is now Appomattox Co. Observation of this lists suggests the following: free men over 16 and under 21 were taxed; there is a special column for counting free men over 21. It appears that all slaves including children were listed, and only slaves above a certain age were taxed (tithed). I made notes below where the number of tithes charged was lower than the number of names given. This list from Library of Virginia, Buckingham Co. Personal Property Tax List for 1782, Reel No. 64. This film is available on interlibrary loan from the Library of Virginia.] Charles Patteson, George Coats, overseer, slaves named Frank, Jerry, Ned, Isham, Anthony, Nell, Amey, Sam, Phill, Will, Isham, Caesor, Alse, Silvey, James.
