Scope and Content Note
This is a list of incorporated companies in each county in the state, arranged according to type of company (bank, insurance, turnpike, bridge, manufacturing, etc.). Pen or pencil notes occasionally indicate the year in which the company was incorporated, its capital stock, and whether it was still in operation. The purpose of the register is not indicated, but it presumably relates to taxation of incorporated companies authorized by Chapter 22 of the Laws of 1824, and Part 1 of the Revised Statutes of 1827.
