==Background==
===Types of Records===
* '''Tahrir''' - The Ottoman Turks conducted extensive surveys of land and population for tax purposes from 1835-1870.  Some of the early surveys listed only the number of household members with no names.
===Coverage and Compliance===
* '''Tahrir''' - These land and property records likely cover less than 10% of the total population.  Women and children are generally not listed and remote localities may not be surveyed.

==Information Recorded in the Records==
 
'''Tahrir''' - Names of heads of households and of any other taxpayers living in the same households, occupation and income, sometimes include names of females and children.
==Cadastral Surveys (''Tahrir'')==
==Strategy==
Research use: These records establish individual identity and residence; may sometimes establish family groups.
Land and Property Records are likely held at the National Archives of Tunis (see contact information above).
