Im Re:~ J. E,- Williams Estate
Dear Sir:
41/2acres and lOacres are delinquent in the name of
Jo E. Williams Estate for 1933 to 1941, and I do not k~owhow
much further back. The 10 acres he bought from Henson, D. B.
122, p. 438 and 4 55/160 acres from the County of Albemarle,
D. B. 138, p. 298. Both of these tracts he conveyed to Ac I.
Johns in July, 1912, D. B. 149, po 494. These pieces are
particularly referred to by the accurate a~reage and by refer-
once to the names of the people he bought from and the deed book
and page where the deed ~is recorded, so there can be no q~estion
about this.
~r. C, Ho Shapleigh has also checked it up and found the
same thing in regard to this Williams property. In fact Mr.
Shapleigh gave me a list of forty-seven pieces in the Rivanna
District which should come off. About a third of these I have
worked o~. It would certainly be a fine thing to get these
forty-seven p£eoes off the current ~ book a~d also to mark
them as erroneous assessments in the Clerk's Office. This would
save the ex, se of earrying themfrom year to year~ show up
better for the~County ia the matter of collections and marking
them off the record would save myself and some other tax collec-
tor a lot of work trying to collect on land that does not exist.
Yours truly,

In Re: Joseph E. Willard
Dear Sir:
5~ acres are delinquent in the name of Joseph E. Willard,
Rivanna District, 1923 to 1931. This is an erroneous assessment.
Joseph E. Willard never had a deed to but one 5~ acre tract. This
he bought from Gertrude Rives ~otts, D. B. 153, p. 184. He and
his wife conveyed this 5~ acres along with other property back to
Gertrude R. Potts by deed dated J~e 19th, 1920 and recorded Sep-
tember 13~h, 1920 in D. B. 174, p. 332. This tax should be marked
off the book.
