HBG,

You are correct. I will repeat the only ref I have to this William.

1755 Lunenburg
"Hatcher Levy free On the Petition of William Hatcher and for Reasons appearing he is Exonorated from the Payment of Public & County Levies for the Future."

To me, the above does not tell me what kind of "levies", taxes, tithables or property, real or personal, that he was exempted from.

I just have no clue how to interpret this exemption. How does one interpret "public & county levies"?
