While the information contained in the Poll List is not so comprehensive as some lists, such as Great Registers, it may allow the researcher to locate and place an ancestor in a specific timeframe. The names are not in alphabetical order so you will need to use your Edit/Find command to locate a specific name or just browse the list.
STATE OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF KLAMATH The following Assessment of Property and Poll Tax List for the year 1856 appeared in the Redwood Researcher Vol. 4 #3, page 11 (1972). It was copied from records held by the Humboldt County Recorders Office, Humboldt County Courthouse, Eureka, California. A poll tax is a tax levied by the head or poll; a capitation tax. It often was a requirement for voting. This revenue was used for the building of schools and roads. If a man was unable to pay the tax he could often work out the assessment by manual labor. |
