Sorry Maggie, there is no poorhouse application for Mary Clifford /Clifort or Galbraith.

I had a look at the 1851 index while at The Mitchell and their names are indexed as Clifford.

Hello Annette
many thanks for trying for me
this woman had so many combinations of surname spelling
Galbraith/Galbreath Oliver Home/Holmes and now Clifort/Clifford
a poor relief record for her just would have been wonderfull ,but alas not to be...
thankyou once again it's appreciated
kind regards
