The IWRO holds an index to those in receipt of Outdoor Relief in 1834 - but
you have already accessed that I think Angela. Around a thousand people I
think.

Otherwise it is probably a matter of searching through any surviving parish
records (Overseers of the Poor Rate Books/Accounts) which may mention some
receiving regular payments and some who received casual payments in
emergencies.
