[APG Public List] [APG Public] Kentucky tax lists question

[Barbara Vines Little, CG, FVGS]

Prior to 1792, Kentucky was part of Virginia, which required that the 
land be taxed and reported in the county in which the land lay. Once 
Kentucky became a separate state it altered this part of its tax 
collection process and reported all land in the county of residence.
