In 1842 tonal taxes imposed had increased to $300.00. Today the township collects detain $30,000 in taxes ach year. The figures were revealed in two old record books located by John Mar- tin, well known Tuckercsanitb farmer. Mr. Martins grandfather, James Mar- tel, was Collector in Tuekersmit'h that year. Of the sixty-three farms listed in the 1841 book, thirteen are today oc- entpiad by desicendenits of the same name. These are the farms now own- ed by Norman Carter; Gifford Crich, John Turner, Fletcher Townsend, Jas. Lamdsbano, wirlliam Broadtfoot, A. and J. Broad.foot, 'James Carnochan, Robt. Carnoehan, David McLean, Hugh. Cheeneyi, Jelhw Broadifoot and George McCartney, 'the latter two being of the fourth generation. When John Martin's gra.>tdfatther made his rounds in -1841 lie had many questionls to ask tele 63 pioneer set- tlers that ,present day asisessons and collectors are not concerned with. For insttenne, he asked in addition to the usual familiar questiqns, how many fireplaces, how many grist mills wrought by water with only one run of stones, haw many oxen, how -many closed carriages with four wheels kept for,pleaeure, how many eurricles. gigs, or other carriages with four wheels kept for pleasure, and lastly, `how many distilleries. In all Tuckerstmith in 1841 there were but 1,041 acres of cleared land. Oxen outnumbered horses '87 to 17. Tuekersmtt}h raie,payens had their representation at., the Legislative As- sembly in 1841 at no cost, nor were they taxed foe the building of the gaol and court :house; accoreing to the re- cord. However, they did have to pay a total of nearly £3 as their share of the erection` of a lunatic asyhim in U,pper Canada. The roll was certified by John 13. Askin, Clerk of the Peace. By 1842 the settlers had cleared an additional 620 acres and tee number of families had increased to 95. 'T'here were 32 horses, 107 oxen, 186 mileh cows and 145 horned cattle.
