==Personal Property Tax Records 1816-1825==
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
Tax records in Wayne County, OH begin in 1816.  From 1816-1819 there is no personal property tax records.  Rather, there are real property tax records.  These are indexed by the first letter of the surname of the present owner.  The first column includes the name of the original purchaser.  The second column includes the present owner’s name.  Additional columns include the part of the section owned, the section, township, range, and county in which property is located.  The next column provides the number of acres, the rate of the land, the amount of tax paid (dollars and cents), and any agents who may be involved in the land transaction.

−
The rate of land was the quality of land and was generally rated on a scale from 1 to 3 with 1 being the highest quality.  The majority of the land in Wayne County, OH was rated a 2.
 
−
 
 
−
An agent, as defined in the book, The New A to Zax: A Comprehensive Genealogical Dictionary for Genealogists and Historians, is “a person who acts with permission for another whether the permission is implied or express.”
 
−
 
 
−
 
−
In 1820, the organization of the real property tax book was slightly different.  The first two columns include the proprietor names out of the county and in the county, respectively.  The records are indexed by the proprietor’s name.  (They are not indexed in strict alphabetical order.  They are indexed by the first letter of the surname.)  The next part of the tax book gives the acres and rate of land.  It looks similar to the following:
 
−
 
 
−
Acres and Rates
 
−
 
 
−
1 2 3
 
−
160
 
−
320
 
−
 
 
−
The top row signifies the rating of the property.  The 160 and 320 refers to the acreage.  So for these two entries, the first land owner owns 160 acres rated 2 and the second land owner has 320 acres of land rated 2.

−
You will notice that on the second page of the entry above, the amount of tax owed is given in dollars (D), cents (C), and mills (M).  Mills are equivalent to 1/1000 of a dollar or 1/10 of a cent.
 
−
 
 
−
The last two columns include the original purchaser’s name and any remarks the tax collector recorded.
 
−
The 1821 tax record is very similar to the 1820 tax record.  The main difference is the taxes were divided by state tax ($, ¢, m) and road tax ($, ¢, m).  A column for the total tax is included.

The 1822 tax record is the same as the 1821.  However, there is a column for remarks.  The 1823, 1824, and 1825 tax records are the same format as the 1821 tax records.

−
==Personal Property Tax Records 1826-1829==
 
−
 
 
−
Beginning in 1826, personal property tax records may be found in addition to the real property tax records.  In addition, each township is listed separately rather than all townships indexed together.  Within each township, the names are listed in order by the first letter of the last name.  The names are not in strict alphabetical order.
 
−
 
 
−
The townships are in order according to range and township number.  A separate number was assigned to each township.  For example, Paint Township is # 1, followed by Sugar Creek Township # 2 and Baughman # 3. 
 
−
 
 
−
Paint (1) R 11 T 15
 
−
Sugar Creek (2) R 11 T 16

−
Column 5 amount (D, C)
 
−
Column 6 remarks

−
As a notation, when designating the location of property, if the range and township numbers are not given, this usually implies the owner has property within the town or village limits or just on the outskirts of the town or village.  Many times, you will see the notation in-lot and out-lot used.  In-lot means the property is within the village, town, or city limits.  Out-lot means the property is just outside the limits.
 
−
 
 
−
 
−
The 1826 personal property tax records include the owner’s name of the property.  The aggregate value of the horses, mules, and asses are given as well as the aggregate value of cattle.  As a general rule, 1 horse was valued at $40 and 1 cow at $8.  Other information includes the capital of merchants; number and value of pleasure carriages; the amount of state, county, road, and township tax; the total amount of taxes; and a column for remarks.

General Overview

The two most common tax records found are real property and personal property tax records. Other types of tax records may include but are not limited to delinquent taxes, inheritance tax duplicates, incorporated companies, and assessment records.

Property tax lists can be useful for several reasons. They serve as a substitute census by helping the researcher determine when an individual migrated to the region and when he moved from the area. They place a particular individual in a particular place at a particular time, very similar to census records and directories. The main difference is taxes were collected each year. Federal census records were recorded every 10 years. Mid-20th century directories were recorded every two years in Wayne County, Ohio and Wooster. 19th-century directories for our area do not exist on a regular schedule.

Real property tax lists were kept for the purpose of levying taxes. The land owner was exempt from paying taxes for the first five (5) years if he was the first owner. Once the land was sold, it immediately became taxable. They show the amount of land, location of the property, and the appraised value. On some real property tax records, the original owner is listed.

Real property taxes may give clues when a house or structure was built. There will be an increase in the value of the property, leading to an increase in the taxes paid on the property. They assist researchers in determining the location of an ancestor’s homestead. When a researcher discovers his ancestor paid taxes on property, it indicates that the researcher may want to look through land deeds for additional clues on the family.

The other type of tax lists were for personal property, such as chattel (horses and cattle). Individuals did not need to own property to own chattel. This is helpful for those ancestors who were established in the community but did not own land.

For Wayne County, Ohio tax records, the department owns them on microfilm for the years 1816-1838. Some are personal property while others include real property. In book form, we have personal property tax lists for the years 1831-1832, 1839-1845, 1848, 1854, and 1856. We have Wooster City for 1860-1865. There is a separate book for the 1849 Wooster City and Canaan Township property taxes.
