The tax lists for our 1799 Personal Property Tax List B has an extra column inbetween the date received and the person's name. It's heading in something like "No of Ca??ts". Numbers are in this column, starting with #1. No one in this list appears to have less than 1 of these, and this column is used to categorize the names for each first letter of the surname. On page 14 this column is labelled as "No of Studs", and no other page is like this. Page 47 seems to have the clearest writing. Does anyone know what this column says? Thanks for helping if you can.
