I have found a record that suggests my relations Jane and John Watts were in a poorhouse along with children Ellen and Rachel Watts in Liverpool about 1866/67. Does anyone know where is best to see if there are any records with more details? what I have got from find my past is quite limited and just gives names and ages really. It doesn't even give a full record of which house they were in, admissions and discharge dates or where they went on discharge.
Would such detailed records have been kept even?
Thanks
