Title: Gloucestershire Hearth Tax
Post by: Slipper on Thursday 30 August 18 17:24 BST (UK)

I'm sure that in the past I've looked at the records for the Hearth Tax (specifically for Hawkesbury) but I can't remember where.  I thought it was on-line but I can't find it.  Can anyone help me please as I want to revisit it.

Thanks

Slipper

I've no idea if either contain records specifically for Hawkesbury.  You may have to contact the above bodies to find out.
