Delinquent tax returns show owner, land description, acreage, valuation, and taxes.

The rolls contain a description of property, assessed valuation, land ownership, and the amount of tax assessed. Some volumes include listings of returns and whether the taxes were paid. Other “Special” tax rolls include Assessment rolls and “Equalized” tax rolls. County-wide special volumes include Assignment Rolls, Redemption Records, and Affidavits and Proof of Publication of Tax Sales.
