Here is a link to a leaflet explaining about the 1910 tax from the national archive.

Hi Lemon

Thanks for the information about the 1910 Doomsday Books, I had never heard of these. Probably too late for what I was looking for but interesting for other things. I am tracking an elusive ancestor who changed her name and invented a husband.

I'll track down the books for Liverpool and see what's in there.

Many thanks.

Hi Lemon

Just had a look at the NA link you provided. The records were compiled between 1840 and 1920 and it says on the website
 
"Since it is impossible to date most individual sheets with any precision, the catalogue entries have adopted the date format of c1910."

So I may be in luck with my 1901 quest. Many thanks again.
