Living the Poor Life

[Katie]

Volunteers from around the country took part in indexing MH12 Records which are part of the Poor Law Collection held at the National Archives. Volunteers from our Society took part in this project and they have indexed the years 1834-1856 for The Liverpool Select Vestry. This resource is not only useful for Family Historians but it also provides a insight into the Social History of the family. Its free to search at

Without volunteers taking part in these projects these records would not be available.

Thanks to the Volunteers from our Society
