Greene County Voter Poll Tax
submitted by: Julia Crosswell (deceased)

These Voter Registration/Poll Tax books were found in the reading room of the Greene County Historical Society on Oct. 12, 1999. Most of the books list the following information: Year, Number, Name, Date of Birth, Age in Years, Occupation, Place of Residence, Length of Residence in: State, County, Precinct; If exempt from paying the poll tax, and any comments the clerk may have entered about the registration being transferred to or from another district. I was not able to copy all parts of many of the pages because I was short on time, the pages were large, and the paper was small. But this is what I found:
