1774 Surry Co., NC Tax Lists
Posted by: Gail R. Blancett Date: March 03, 2000 at 17:04:04

I'm posting the following tax lists for 1774 for Surry Co., NC which I think perhaps will help in sorting out the NC Tilley families. I found these lists in a soft bound book at the NC Archives years ago. I found it just before they were to close and I didn't have a chance to get through the whole book but this is all of the 1774 list.

In 1774, Surry County would have encompassed a much larger area than present Surry Co. but it would NOT have included Orange County.

Capt. John Detherage's District (which covered the upper part of what is now Stokes Co.):
On or near Croked [Crooked] Creek: James Tilley & John Tilley, son 2 White Polls

On or Near Dan River: Lazarus Tilley & Negro Sal 2 White Polls

Capt. Benj. Cleveland's District (largely in what is now Wilkes Co. and the upper part of what is now Surry Co.):

Stephen Tilley 1 White poll
Henry Tilley & Lewis Tilley 2 White Polls

Capt. Hickman's District (NE part of present Stokes Co. near Rockingham Co. Line):

Henry Tille J. [Jr?] 150 Acres 1 White Poll
John Tille 1 White Poll
Bennet Tille 150 Acres 1 White Poll
Henry Tille 199 Acres 1 White Poll 1 Black Poll

Capt. Gain's District (Part of present Stokes Co. near Village of Westfield):
Edmund Tilley 150 acres 1 White Poll
Lazarus Tilley 152 Acres 1 White Poll 1 Black Poll
James Tilley Jr. 200 acres 1 White Poll
Henry Tilley 150 Acres 1 White Poll
James Tilley 300 Acres 1 White Poll
