Register of auctioneers, 1830-1848.

This series consists of registers listing auctioneers who posted bond and returned taxes to the State Comptroller. State law required auctioneers to file every three months "a just and true account" of all wares and goods sold at public auction so that the treasurer could determine what duties should be levied. The auctioneers are listed by county with each entry recording name, residence (city or town), date of execution of bond, and the dates of receipts of the quarterly returns.
