Default Abbey Poorhouse

Does anyone have access to the Abbey Poorhouse records in 1868 at Paisley, Renfrew? My relative died aged 41 on 16 Dec 1868 William Lachlan (tho sometimes spelt as Laughlan and other variations) He was formerly a labourer and had been married to Jane Grieve.

The workhouses.org.uk site says the archived records for the Abbey W/H are held at Paisley Central Library, High Street, Paisley PA1 2BA and that most poor law records are surname indexed there.
