"This microfilm is an addendum to the Lancaster County Tax Records project of 1971 and 1977. The records on this film were donated to the Lancaster County Historical Society in January 1981. They had been kept in the basement of Conestoga View Hospital which was used by the Lancaster County government as a storage facility for records. The tax records were water damaged and subsequently discarded at an unknown point in time. A private citizen discoverd and salvaged the items from a trash heap, and donated them to the Historical Society. The items show extensive damaged [sic] by water, mold, and vermin. Most pages are frayed and sections unreadable."
