The "impotent poor" were those unable to look after themselves, like the very old, the very young, the sick, crippled, unmarried mothers, the blind and insane and the "able bodied poor" were those who had no work and therefore did not have any money to live on.
People in the workhouse were commonly referred to as inmates or paupers. The term "inmate" was used to describe individuals residing in the workhouse, while "pauper" referred to their impoverished status.
