This project will be the first to examine and compare the inter-institutional encounters and life chances of workhouse children in nineteenth-century England. Yorkshire has been chosen as a case study as it allows me to measure responses to workhouse children in its industrial, urban districts as well as its smaller, agricultural, rural areas. Moreover, the survival of a unique range of institutional sources make the study possible. A rich lode of records from the Northallerton and Bradford Union Workhouses survive from 1837. For these reasons, research in this area will considerably advance our understanding of the long-term effects of institutional intervention in children's lives and reveal previously unknown aspects of the workhouse child's post-institutional experience.

这个项目将是第一个检查和比较机构间的遭遇和生活机会的济贫院儿童在十九世纪的英格兰。约克郡被选为案例研究，因为它使我能够衡量其工业，城市地区以及较小的农业，农村地区对济贫院儿童的反应。此外，一系列独特的制度来源的生存使研究成为可能。从1837年起，诺萨勒顿和布拉德福德联合济贫院保存了丰富的矿脉记录。由于这些原因，在这一领域的研究将大大提高我们对儿童生活中的机构干预的长期影响的理解，并揭示以前未知的方面济贫院儿童的后机构的经验。
