Tax List - 1796

Middle Smithfield (now Stroud) Twp., Monroe Co, PA

Contributed by Marilyn

Note: As the Federal Census is only taken every ten years, the County tax lists and assessment rolls have come to play an important part of our genealogical research. It helps to track the movements of our ancestors in or out of the county. It can also estimate death dates and some will even list the single men seperately. Here again - check for all possibly spellings.
