Hadley Township Tax Assessments for New Philadelphia
Tax assessments, or the value of each individual's land holdings, are routinely studied by historical archaeologists. Knowing what value each parcel of land is considered to have, and noting if that value changes over time, gives archaeologists clues as to what the land may have been used for and whether or not there were buildings on the property. For instance, if the value of a lot in New Philadelphia is higher one year than it was in the previous year, it is likely that the owner has built some sort of structure on the land in the time between the tax assessments.
