Plus ca change . . . . . .

Chatters,

Just to show that governments have always screwed as much money as they can out of everybody!

In the records from France Lynch GLS N.C. register written circa 1782 is:-

"This is to certify that I have bought a License to indemnify me for inserting Baptisms and Burials without stamps in this Register  Thomas Jones"

Regards

Chas
