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.

Strategy

Land and Property Records are likely held at the National Archives of Tunis (see contact information above).
