1869 Elliott County, Kentucky Tax List

This is the first tax list for Elliott Co. and is unique amoung tax list which I have seen in that it is divided into 3 parts, one for each of the parent counties, Carter, Lawrence and Morgan. With the tax list being divided in this manner it makes finding the county a person lived (or owned property) before Elliott Co. was formed. Keep in mind because a person is on a tax list for a county does NOT mean they lived in that county. A person was taxed for real estate in the county the land was in. Personal property was taxed in the county of their residence. I have cross indexed those entries where two people were listed for one property. These were added at the end of that initial. The order and the spelling of the names are as they appear on the taxlist. To put them in alphabetical order would have separated families that may appear together.
