Sharon,

Happy Thanksgiving!! Hope that your visit to Alexander Library was a
fruitful one. It was a pleasure to meet you and be able to spend the
day at the lectures.

HH = Householder
9 cents
shop
1 cent

Now I am "guessing" that the values listed are for the householders
assets & the shop, but one would have to check the beginning of the
article for what information was abstracted from this tax rateable.
Besides that, I find it a bit strange that the valuation is not listed
in the British currency of pounds and shillings. Hmmm...
need to recheck my colonial research notes on this for you.

Regards,
Shell
