Yes, there were taxes in the 1700s, though the types and rates varied significantly by region. In colonial America, for example, taxes were levied on goods, property, and income, often to fund local governments and military expenses. The British government also imposed taxes on the colonies, such as the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts, which contributed to growing discontent and ultimately the American Revolution. Overall, taxation was a common practice, albeit often contentious.
