Phyllis, If you have a relative who was a pauper, did you look this person up in the poor law records? I had someone look up my GGG grandparents, and I found a veritable motherlode of information on the entire family..... hope this helps, Kerri >From: Phyllis Ziajka <pziajka@shaw.ca> >Reply-To: SCT-RENFREW-L@rootsweb.com >To: SCT-RENFREW-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: [Renfrew] RICHMOND >Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2003 10:18:37 -0600 > >Hello Listers: > >I'm new on the Renfrew List and would like to post my surname interest > >The family I'm researching is: > >JOHN RICHMOND (b. at Riccarton ca. 1788) marred ANN FERGUSON (b. at >Kilmarnock ca. 1797).

Hi Kerri, I have a few relatives who died in poorhouses....would they be listed in the "poor law records"? I am not quite sure what the poor law records are. Where and how do you look them up?
