Transcriber's notes
There are two 'do.s' on this line, and the previous, but I have assumed the second is a mistake, unless they were brewers and carters. In Volume 5 the ditto is not repeated.
Scottish Exchequer (Tax Records), Farm horse tax - Volume 12 - Counties (Ross and Cromarty - Wigtown) (see 'More info' for county details), E326/10/12
Volume 12 contains farm horse tax information on the following counties: Ross and Cromarty, Roxburghshire, Selkirkshire (Ettrick Forest), Stirlingshire, Sutherland, West Lothian (Linlithgowshire), Wigtownshire, and Ross.
Scottish Exchequer (Tax Records)
The Scottish Exchequer, and subsequently the Court of Exchequer, were concerned with the accounting of collected taxes in Scotland. These taxes include the Carriage tax (1785-1798), Cart tax (1785-1798), Clock and watch tax (1797-1798), Dog tax (1797-1798), Farm horse tax (1797-1798), Servant tax (1777-1798), Hearth tax (1691-1695), Horse tax (1785-1798), Inhabited house tax (1778-1798), Land tax (1645-1831), Poll tax (1694-1698), Shop tax (1785-1789), Window tax (1748-1798). Following the Consolidating Acts (38 Geo. III cap. 40 and 41), the duties on windows, inhabited houses, male servants, carts, carriages and dogs were incorporated in Consolidated Schedules of Assessed Taxes (1798-1799).
