Bonnie, would you mind looking in the book for a William Puckett and or
Richard Puckett, they were in Henrico County until 1740. I would appreciate
any help with this family. William Puckett is the father of Richard
Puckett, Richard died in 1735.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Margie

Hi Margie,
I have a copy of Early Virginia Families Along the James River, Vol. I by
Louise Pledge Heath Foley. It has Rent Rolls for Hnerico, Charles City and
New Kent Counties for 1704-5. Otherwise, I never looked for rent rolls for
other counties since my ancestors stayed near the James River for so long.
I'm not aware of available rent rolls for any other year, but am not
familiar with the history of this particular "tax".
Amelia Co. was formed about 1734 from Prince George and Brunswick Cos. You
might try Prince George or Surry for rent rolls. I don't know if they
survived.
Bonnie
