  • 1696 Hearth Tax, Aberdeenshire Residents
    1696 Poll Tax List for the North East of Scotland In the latter part of the 17th century, the Scottish economy was in poor shape. Among several unpopular taxes introduced during this period was the Poll Tax that imposed a tax on every person over 16 (14?) years of age and not a beggar. The list of persons in Aberdeenshire is supposedly the only complete county list in existence, and enumerates some 30,000 persons, although less than 100 of these are Brebner/Bremner individuals. I have transcribed the Brebner/Bremner and all variant spellings from the indexes published by the late Archie Strath Maxwell and found in the main public library in Aberdeen. The Aberdeen and NE Scotland Family History Society (ANESFHS) has a series of full transcriptions of many of the Aberdeenshire parishes available for purchase, and I would recommend these to anyone who has traced their ancestors back to this early period. Many of the 1696 parishes had different names and boundaries than their 19th century counterparts, although farm names are often continued through the centuries. In looking through the Brebner/Bremner entries for Aberdeenshire, I found it most interesting that some parishes in which the families were well represented in the 18th and 19th centuries had no entries in 1696. This suggests that the founding members of those families came from other parts of Aberdeenshire, or indeed from other parts of Scotland. Trying to match individuals in this population poll with corresponding births or christenings is hampered by the lack of Old Parish Registers for many of the under-mentioned parishes during that early time.
