Book Description
Excerpt from The Fort Edward Book: Containing Some Historical Sketches With Illustrations, and Family Records No one can know better, no one can more deeply regret, than the author, the defects and omissions of the present volume. If it has any virtues, they should be ascribed to my esteemed friend, Mr. James D. Keating, the publisher; except for his encouragement, enterprise and industry, it had never been printed; its faults, and they are legion, are all my own. Some of them might have been avoided, but most of them are due to reasons imperative in their nature. The following pages will be found to contain some historical material never before published. For all that is most valuable the author is indebted to many kind friends, and this indebtedness the reader will generally find acknowledged throughout the subsequent pages, but to dare to hope that I have always adequately expressed my obligations in this regard, would be perhaps to dare too much. The subject, "Fort Edward," furnishes a theme sufficient attractive for the pen of a "ready writer." That the town has never had a local historian must be a subject of regret. That some day there will be written, and published, a history of Fort Edward that shall be worthy of the name, is the earnest hope of one who now gives to the world some of the humble gleanings of an unskilled stroller along a classic highway.

Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XIII. TAXATION AND ASSESSMENTS, INCLUDING SOME OF THE PRINCIPAL TAXPAYERS IN THE EARLY DAYS.--SUPERVISORS' UNIQUE RECORDS. The earliest assessment roll preserved in the town clerk's office is for the year 1820, by which roll it appears that there was at that time in this town, 161 resident taxpayers and eight non-resident taxpayers. Forty-six of the resident taxpayers were assessed for personal property. William Finn was the largest land-owner in town at that time. He was assessed for 4738 acres of land and his personal assessment was for $3,000. The land throughout the town was assessed at the uniform rate of $1.00 per acre, and Mr. Finn was therefore assessed for $7,738, upon which assessment he paid a tax of $30.56. He was not only the largest landowner, but he was also the largest taxpayer in town. In 1826 the town raised for the support of the poor, $150; for town expenses, $199.85; for the support of common schools, $95.04; for county tax, $352.22, and for the collector's fee on school tax, $4.75, making a total levy in town of $801.86. The next year the levy was something less, being only $743.22. In 1830 the aggregate valuation of the resident taxpayers was $177,630. This valuation was reduced four per cent, by the Board of Supervisors, and Ira Parmely, Supervisors' clerk, certified that "there is to be levied in Fort Edward this year (1830) for town expenses, $133.13; for the support of common schools, $101.58; for county tax, $622.40; for collector's fees on school tax, $5.08, a total of $862.19." In 1831 the total assessed acreage was 15,733. The valuation of the real estate was $163,482; the personal assessment was $16,409; the aggregate valuation $179,891; and the total tax was $515.92. In 1832 the aggregate...
