HEADINGTON POOR LAW UNION

1842 - 1872

Introduction

  

 

The following chapters are my personal analysis of the information contained within the Minute  Books of the Headington Poor Law Union Board of Guardians' meetings during the period from 1841 until 1873. The books contain varied information including monies spent, provisions purchased and people involved. As with all minutes, however, the recording clerk at any  particular time chose the amount of detail to include.

I make no claim that this work is either definitive nor  necessarily of any high academic or scholastic merit; it is merely an attempt to show something of what happened at a very local level in one area of rural life in Oxfordshire.
