Indoor (workhouse) relief

Comprises records relating to the admission, discharge and maintenance of inmates of the York Workhouse, which was later known at the City Institution and then The Grange). Relief granted within the workhouse was termed 'indoor relief' as opposed to 'outdoor relief' which was granted to the poor in their own homes (i.e.outside the Workhouse).

Also includes records relating to the staffing and administration of the Workhouse.

Outdoor relief

Comprises records relating to the administration of relief granted to the poor in their own home (i.e. outside the Workhouse, hence the term 'outdoor relief').

Includes application and report books, weekly outdoor relief lists, relief order books, relief granted on loan, relieving officers' receipt and expenditure books, relief in kind books and records relating to medical relief.

Comprises records relating to the collection of relief from liable individuals.

The York Poor Law Union (and later the Public Assistance Committee) attempted to recover money spent on relief that had been granted to the poor. They ordered individuals - usually liable relatives - to contribute towards the cost of maintaining those in receipt of poor relief. The collection of relief was administered by the Collecting Committee.

Includes order books, notices to contribute, payment ledgers, receipt and payment books, registers of insurance benefits and adjourned cases, claim made to the Ministry of Health, and Collectors' accounts and correspondence.

See also PLU/13/1 for legal cases relating to recovery of relief.

Comprises records concerning the settlement and removal of paupers under the York Poor Law Union and the Public Assistance Committee.

In order to have the right to claim poor relief a person had to have the right of settlement in a parish/ward in the area in which they were currently residing. Those who did not have the right of settlement could be forcibly removed.

Includes registers and accounts of non-resident and non-settled poor; and registers of removal orders and settlement enquiries.

Assessment and rating

Comprises records relating to the administration of the poor rate. The poor rate was a local tax on the yearly value of a property, levied by the parish. The money collected from poor rates was used to help finance relief for the poor as well as the infrastructure of administering that relief.

From 1837 to 1925 the York Poor Law Union was responsible for administering the poor rate, and from time to time other rates (such as the lighting rate).
