[Charity. Poor welfare as care for the elderly in the 2nd half of the 19th century].
In the second half of the nineteenth century poor relief of the church was especially directed at the elderly. Firstly, this is clear from the existence of almshouses and the so-called old people's homes. Secondly, in allocating poor relief age played an important role. Permanent outdoor relief was supplied from the age of fifty. This article will portray this nineteenth century permanent outdoor relief. A group of 239 permanently endowed people will be analyzed on the basis of parish registers of the Evangelical-Lutheran church in Amsterdam. This specific group (orphanages, almshouses, old people's homes and boarders will not be considered) consisted largely of elderly people.
