Note: The personal property tax lists contain more columns than are shown here. However, these columns had no information for any of the Whitnah's listed here, so I have omitted them.

Notes:


  1. The first column reports the number of White males in the household. For many years, the age of reporting is not indicated. For most years, the age to be included in the count is over 16. However, for 1787 the tax lists show only males above 21 years.
  2. Henry passed away late 1818 or early 1819. John lived on this property until shortly before his death. This entry is for Henry's land, but listed under John's name.
