Abstract
The author presents a case study of a French community "in which there exists a convenient fit between the manner in which data are organized in the national census on one hand and local notions about how families and households should be organized on the other. This means that data series from the census can in fact yield a revealing picture of patterns of change over time in...family organization....Although the French census has certainly not been designed specifically to accommodate the premises of [the towns] family organization it nonetheless happens to do so. This suggests that the census structure and family structure are sometimes related such that the one is a demonstrably satisfactory source of information about experience within the other even when each is premised on rather different ideas about family organization."
