Janine, There is a lot of information about the poor law on the Lincolnshire Genuki website Poor Law pages - you need also to read about settlement. http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/LIN/poorsettlement_cole.html http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/LIN/poorsettlement.html There are no poor law documents for Louth parish, so no chance of finding a settlement examination in Lincolnshire. The removal order is on the Lindsey Quarter Sessions CD, 1819, but there is no examination in the quarter sessions either. Maybe there is more information in the Sculcoates parish deposit. I presume you will need to contact Hull Archives for this. I have no information except what we have found in Lincolnshire.
