A note on the estimation of marriage rate from census data.

"The level and trend in nuptiality for the developing countries can not be studied because necessary data are not available. A broad idea of the trend is obtained by examining the never-married proportion for different age cohorts at different censuses. In this paper, a methodology for estimating age-specific marriage rates from census data is presented." (SUMMARY IN FRE AND ITA)

The context of migration: the example of Ireland in the nineteenth century.

"A classic case where out-migration interacted with many other geographical phenomena is provided by rural Ireland in the nineteenth century. The apparent turning point was the Great Famine of the 1840s, but the areas with the greatest suffering from starvation did not necessarily show the greatest population decline, suggesting that other forces were active. Considerable economic and social changes were already taking place before the Famine: fertility was being reduced, later marriage was becoming established and considerable emigration was already taking place. Immediately after the Famine those areas which had been hardest hit often reverted to pre-Famine conditions and did not show strong population decline until the 1870s. The Famine was a most serious event, but the modernization of Irish rural life, which linked emigration with changes in family structure, agriculture and population numbers, was more important in bringing about geographical change."

Delayed childbearing in Canada: trends and factors.

"Using period and cohort birth order statistics, an overview of the phenomenon of delayed childbearing in Canada is presented. Data employed in the period analysis were mainly from the years 1944 to 1985, while women born between the years 1935 and 1960 were the subjects of the cohort analysis. An examination of selected indices, namely, age-specific first-birth fertility rates, median ages of women at first-order birth and cumulative first-order birth rates shows that there is an overall trend for women to postpone the initiation of childbearing until late twenties or early thirties.... The results indicate that work experience, education, occupation and year of marriage are important variables influencing age at first birth and first-birth interval." (SUMMARY IN FRE AND ITA)
