Revolutionary War Tax Law & Records Reports of the Subcommittee on Revolutionary Taxes, National Society SAR Genealogy Committee John D. Sinks, Harold Ford, and Tilghman McCabe, Jr. 22 December 2013 The National Society SAR Genealogy Committee established the Subcommittee on Revolutionary Taxes to “examine evidence and determine whether or not particular tax laws and lists provide a basis for Patriotic Service and make that information available to the SAR staff and members.” The reports of the Subcommittee on Revolutionary Taxes posted by the Genealogy Committee were prepared with these goals in mind. Under Genealogy Committee policy 2012-06: A. Payment of a tax to a state or a local jurisdiction during the Revolution shall be deemed Patriotic Service by virtue of providing material aid if: 1. a. the title and/or authorizing language of the tax addresses a request of the Continental Congress, whether or not the request was explicitly attributed to the Congress, or b. the title and/or authorizing language for the tax gives as the purpose the support of the War and/or achieving independence; and, 2. the taxpayer was not charged a penalty rate or fee imposed for breaking the law and/or the taxpayer was not on record for having broken a law entailing a penalty such as a higher rate, penalty fee, fine, or seizure of property. As a general strategy, the Subcommittee examines the statutes of a state before it has examined the tax records of that state. Even without a report on particular tax records for a state, a report of the tax laws is of value because an applicant can often determine what law mandated a particular tax record and can simply cite the report on statutes for the state if the law qualified. The reports are subject to revision. With respect to reports on statutes, there are two reasons. First, the Subcommittee may have overlooked some Revolutionary taxes when reviewing the laws of particular states. Taxes were sometimes authorized in statutes that bore titles giving no hint that a tax was entailed. For example, Virginia passed a law in 1780 entitled “An act for recruiting this state’s quota of troops to serve in the continental army.” Buried in this law is authorization of a tax to raise bounty money for continental volunteers. Second, reports on statutes are developed in two major phases, the first of which may be completed long before the second phase is started. In the first phase the focus is on whether or not a particu- lar tax law is to support the War or address a request of the Continental Congress. The second phase occurs when the Subcommittee starts examining the particular tax records for a state. Additions to the reports on statutes are often made when the Subcommittee determines that particular provisions of a law are useful in determining that extant tax records were mandated by that law. With respect to reports on tax records, reports are likely to reflect state records held at state archives and not county records. For example, the report on Pennsylvania tax lists covers those in the Pennsylvania State Archives Record Series 4.61 and not those that may be found among county records.

  • Jeffrey L. Scheib* ONE of the MOST Important Documents to Survive
    A 1688 Census of Kent County, Delaware Jeffrey L. Scheib* NE OF THE MOST important documents to survive from the Oearly colonial history of the state of Delaware is a partial census of Kent County taken late in the spring or sometime in the summer of 1688. The 1688 enumeration was not the earliest census of the Kent County population.' Nevertheless, it was the first census of the region to provide detailed information on the members of each household, listing not only the name of each freeholder in the county but also the names and ages of everyone dwelling in each household. Of importance both historically and genealogically, the census provides a fascinating glimpse of the population of Kent County at a very early period. Introduction The circumstances surrounding the compilation of the 1688 Kent County census remain a mystery. In December of 1682, shortly after he had assumed jurisdiction over the Three Lower Counties of New Castle, Kent, and Sussex, William Penn' issued an order to the justices of the peace in each of the counties: I do also think Fitt that an Exact Catalogue be returned to Me, of the Names of all the People of your County, Masters, Mistresses, Servants, Parents, Children, allso the number of Acres each Free Holder hash, and *Editor's Note: The author is indebted to Rosalind, . Belle; former assistant editor of the Biographical Dictionary of Early Pennsylvania Ligiclaton project. During the course of her research on several Kent Countians who served as representatives in the Pennsylvania Assembly before the year 1 nv, she discovenxi a partial transcript of the Kent County census in the Matilda Spicer Hari Collection at the Genealogical Society cf Pennsylvania.

  • Global Tax Reform: Who's Leading, Who's Lagging, and Is the US in The
    Tax Foundation “Global Tax Reform: Who’s Leading, Who’s Lagging, and Is the U.S in the Race?” November 18, 2004 How Will Large Advanced Economies Respond to these Global Trends? Scott Hodge: We’ve asked our next three panelists to answer a couple of key questions. What is the influence of the new competitive global environment on their economies and tax policies? And how have they reconciled the need for tax revenues with the need to promote competition and at the same time maintain fairness in the system? And then what are the emerging challenges for tax reform in their countries going forward? And I’m very delighted to have our three panelists with us today. I’ll introduce all of them and then we’ll go in order. Starting with Dawn Primarolo, who is a member of Parliament and Paymaster General in the United Kingdom. As Paymaster General, Ms. Primarolo has a strategic oversight over the UK tax system as a whole, including direct, indirect corporate taxation, capital gains tax, inheritance tax, VAT, European and international tax issues. That’s a very, very 1 broad portfolio to be able to get your arms around. She’s been a member of Parliament for South Bristol since 1987. And our second speaker will be Vadim Grishin who is the head of the Economic Office at the Embassy of the Russian Federation. We’re very delighted that Mr. Grishin has joined us today. He concentrates his activities within the Economic Office on expanding Russian/American economic partnerships, especially business dialogues in promising fields such as energy, high technology and finance.
