The term "poorhouse" historically refers to an institution where the impoverished or destitute would live when they could not support themselves. Many people, especially during the 19th and early 20th centuries, found themselves in poorhouses due to economic hardship, illness, or family breakdowns. Specific individuals, such as those affected by the Great Depression, might be named in historical accounts, but the concept generally encompasses a broad swath of society rather than specific figures.
