Relief order books were kept by the Clerk of the York Poor Law Union and later the Public Assistance Committee.
The books record orders for out-relief granted by the York Guardians/Public Assistance Committee in response to applications put forward by the Relieving Officer (see PLU/3/1 Application and Report books).
Details entered into the books include: name of applicant seeking relief, name of parish/relief district; quantity and description of relief; and how many weeks relief was granted.
Note that books were dated in quarterly periods. For example Mar 1910-Sep 1910 = quarter ending in March to quarter ending in September and would therefore cover the months Jan-Sep 1910.
