Poorhouse Lookup Please.

Post by Cathy » Tue May 01, 2007 12:29 am

I have no proof John Park/s,

( b.1874 October Sixteenth; Wood Street, Catrine.
Parents Henry Park, Labourer; Mary Park, M.S. McMenemin.)

was ever in the P/H.
He died in that other institution known as Bar-L in 1900.
He also used the names Cally and Duffy.
He had previously had spells of illness, so may have had Relief at some point.

If yes, then there doesn't appear to be an application for John under any of his 3 names.
Annie, but please do look - i may very well have missed any.

Thanks Jack.
Yes they are all mine, and I have all Mary's applications.
Just trying to tie up any loose ends on this family.
