Description | Rent roll including details of proprietor, possessor, occupation, rent and assessment.
An index to this roll is available in the catalogue. The names of both the proprietors and the occupants of the properties are listed, along with details of their occupation, place of origin (when not resident principally in Aberdeen), and very often whether the property concerned is rented for residential or commercial purposes. In the original, the annual rental value of the premises is noted followed by the assessment made. However only the rental value has been included in the index. While forenames and occupations have been modernised and their spellings standardised, all surnames and place-names have been rendered as they appear in the original document. |
