What is the name of poor house in medieval age?

I looked this up and the earliest reference I could find for the "poor house" was in the 1800's and this well past the middle ages. They were also called poor farms and I found out that people were auctioned off to another person for a year or so to work for the person in exchange for rent. Again, though, this was in the 1800's. So, if you were poor ( most people were very poor in the middle ages) there was no place for you to go to. To have a "poor house" there has to be social services and a thinking that people need to be helped in someway. The society of the middle ages was feudal which meant that 90% of the people were peasant or serf and had to work for a place to live.


What is the difference between deserving poor and idle poor?

In the Tudor times, there were many poor people on the streets. The government decided to put them into 2 groups, the deserving and the idle. the deserving poor were the poor people who couldn't work through no fault of their own. For example, orphans widowers with lots of children, sick and ill and so on. However the idle poor are the poor who refused to work because of laziness. They were fit to work but spent time in the streets begging instead of finding a job. These people were whipped until bloody and were punished. Orphans in the deserving poor might have been sent to traders to learn how to trade. By fearne hope this hepled!!!!
