Name
House of Commons Journal: Stamp Act resolutions and road petitions, 1765
Description
Extract from the House of Commons Journal for 1765-1766 containing detailed parliamentary resolutions on stamp duties for the American colonies and plantations, along with various local road and enclosure petitions. The stamp duty resolutions specify rates for land grants, legal instruments, publications, and other documents, with proceeds to be paid to the Exchequer for colonial defence. This source is crucial for understanding Westminster's fiscal policy toward the colonies and the administrative framework that would affect colonial trade and governance.
