Index to original assessments for 1789 to 1889
Description
The accession consists of a single bound handwritten volume. The index may be to special assessments of certain properties for tax purposes. It is identified as "Original Assessments from 1789 to 1889." There is an indication it was transcribed in 1918 from earlier records. Each entry indicates a block of streets and a date, presumably when the assessment was made. The volume was originally transferred to the Municipal Reference Library from the mayor's office. The Library presented it to the Archives. Arranged by location.
