Hi Donna, The indenture states the name and age of the child, and occasionally an adult, to whom he/she is indentured, for how long, what the master or mistress will provide for them and what they will be expected to do. It is signed by the President of the Poorhouse , the persons claiming the person indentured and witnesses. I plan to provide those names to the list too. What letters of the alphabet do you have?. I'll send you a copy of the others. Eventually I will post all of them on the Poorhouse Lady's site. http://www.poorhousestory.com/ "Donna E.
