Certificates of land sold for delinquent taxes, 1868-1910.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122640659

This series includes the official certificates of sale of land taken by the state for non-payment of property taxes. The certificates describe the land, provide the name of the delinquent tax land owner, and name of the person who purchased the land. If there was no claim on the land by the original owner within two years after the sale, a deed was issued to the purchaser and ownership officially transferred. The State Tax Commission was preceeded in performing this function by the State Auditor and the State Tax Commissioner (1897-1907) whose records are also included in this series.
