The papers you are looking for are at York Archives, but they are not free for people to view as yet and it could be a couple of years before they are available.

(1) Admissions and discharges for the period 1900-1912; (2) The Guardians' Minutes for the same years; and (3) Outdoor Relief application and report books for 1837-1929. In the first two cases, what I'm looking for in particular, are any records relating to York Union Workhouse Infirmary between 1900 and the end of 1912. According to Pete Higgingbotham's Workhouse site, they should be stored at York City Archives. Unfortunately, since the re-organisation, the place is in a pretty chaotic state, due to only around 20%+ of the their holdings being re-catalogued and a lack of local knowledge from the two archivists: the one that I've spoken to, by telephone and email had no knowledge of them or their whereabouts. Any help/tips would be very welcome.
