This is a continuing series in the Journal, as you can see by the current issue starting with "D". In the introduction to the first Poor Index (Feb.2007) the FHS Journal Editor Priscilla Lewthwaite wrote that the extracts are taken from an index she has been compiling for over 20 years. "Sources include church charity books, wills, court cases, local newspapers, census returns, parish registers, etc."
She writes "If you wish me to check my index please send one IRC if in England; two IRCs if abroad and a Manx stamp addressed envelope if on the Island". (Obviously you would need to be a member of the FHS.)
Her address is on the first page of the Journal.
