The National Records for Scotland (www.nrscotland.gov.uk) has announced that consolidated tax schedule records from 1798-1799, replacing a myriad of separate Scottish tax lists from previous years, have now been made available on ScotlandsPlaces (www.scotlandsplaces.gov.uk). There is a caveat, however, in that records are available only for counties which begin with the letters A-M - so no schedules survive for Nairnshire, Orkney, Peebles-shire, Perthshire, Renfrewshire, Ross-shire and Wigtownshire.
