- Description:
- This is a collection of 143 volumes of tax records for the City of Lansing, dating from 1894 to 1939 with many gaps. All volumes are organized by ward, either wards 1-6 (in effect sometime before 1900 to 1916) or wards 1-8 (1917-1955; the city went to four wards in 1956). Within each ward, some years the records are organized alphabetically by last name of the property owner, but in most cases information is listed by legal description of the land parcel, usually by plat or subdivision, so a search for a particular individual can be time consuming. The ledger volumes are large, very dusty, and often in poor condition. All of the records are handwritten. None of the volumes have been digitized or indexed. They can be accessed in the Local History Room.
