Sélections de livres de taxes foncières, Londres, Angleterre, 1684 à 1907
Les taxes foncières étaient collectées dans chaque paroisse pour subvenir aux besoins des pauvres et des malades, à l’entretien des routes et des églises et à d’autres dépenses de la paroisse. Cette base de données comprend des livres de taxes d’habitation pour les paroisses de Londres archivés aux Archives métropolitaines de Londres. (Remarque : toutes les régions ne sont pas couvertes et environ la moitié de la collection représente la paroisse de St. Dunstan à l’Est.)
Rates were collected in each parish for support of the sick and poor, maintenance of roads and church, and other parish expenses. This database includes rate books held at the London Metropolitan Archives for parishes in London. (Note: There are gaps in coverage for some areas, and approximately half the content is from the parish of St. Dunstan in the East.)
Rates were assessed based on a dwelling’s value. These records include a listing of who occupied the house, who owned the house, the type of dwelling, the name or situation of the property, how much rent was collected, and the rates paid. In some cases you may need to page forward for the rent and rate details which appear on the next page.
