 == Apprenticeship Tax  ==
-A child could be apprenticed by his father or by the parish council if the child was an orphan or a pauper. A person was apprenticed between the ages of 7 and 18 years. An indenture was a legal agreement that bound the apprentice to serve a number of years, usually 7. Indentures usually contain the names of the apprentice and the master, the master’s trade and residence, the terms of apprenticeship, and sometimes the name, occupation, and residence of the apprentice’s father.
-Between 1710 and 1811 a tax was assessed on the masters of the many who were apprenticed. For more information about these tax records, see the [[England Taxation|Taxation]] topic page.
