I am trying to find information on New York tax rates and revenues for the period after the end of the American Revolution and before the formation of the federal government under the Constitution (the period from 1783-1789). I am aware of the information starting in 1789 summarized in Don C. Sowers, _Financial History of New York State from 1789 to 1912_ (New York, 1914), but I have not found a convenient source for similar information for the 1780s. As far as primary material is concerned, I have looked through the session laws for the period. Otherwise, I would be grateful for any hints about where to look in either primary or secondary sources. I am particularly interested in finding a record of customs duties collected by the state, but would be grateful for suggestions about where I might find any tax or revenue data. Thanks very much.
