Dear Joan

Could you be more specific about the context? A boarder when
referring to someone in a private madhouse means someone who
is living there as a patient, but is not certified insane. There were
heavy restrictions on this practice in the 19th century.

I do not think you mean lodgers or boarders in workhouses? Do
you mean the general use of the words for people lodging or
boarding in the community?

Best Wishes

Andrew

Hi
I subscribe to this list and I wonder if any one can help me with a little
research I am carrying out on my village and workhouse in 1871. Can someone
relate the definition/difference between LODGERS AND BOARDERS. Thanks in
anticipation Joan
