The widow took in a boarder because she had an extra bedroom and needed the money. Her aunt had a boarder who paid no money but did odd jobs, like bringing in firewood for the fireplaces.

In the 1800s, families often took in a boarder or two.

A boarder is a temporary tenant who gets a sleeping room and meals, often in exchange for performing work in the house or on the property.

The US Census shows many families shared their homes with boarders. Many boarders were simply down on their luck.

In the 1900s, a boarder could often find a room at a boarding house, either for a fee or in exchange for work.

In the 21st century, most situations like these involve one boarder with a private arrangement with another person or family.
