In this article, the authors describe a collaboration of the Minnesota Population Center (MPC), the U.S. Census Bureau, and the National Archives and Records Administration to restore the lost data from the 1960 Census. The data survived on refrigerated microfilm in a cave in Lenexa, Kansas. The MPC is now converting the data to usable form. Once the restored data are processed, the authors intend to develop three new data sources based on the 1960 census. These data will replace the most inadequate sample in the series of public-use census microdata spanning the years from 1850 to 2000, extend the chronological scope of the public census summary files, and provide a powerful new resource for the Census Bureau and its Research Data Centers.

在这篇文章中,作者介绍了明尼苏达人口中心 (MPC)、美国人口普查局和国家档案与记录管理局为恢复 1960 年人口普查丢失的数据而开展的合作。这些数据保存在堪萨斯州莱内萨一个山洞的冷藏缩微胶卷中。人口普查中心目前正在将这些数据转换成可用的形式。一旦修复的数据得到处理,作者打算根据 1960 年人口普查结果开发三个新的数据源。这些数据将取代横跨 1850 年至 2000 年的公共使用人口普查微数据系列中最不充分的样本,扩大公共人口普查摘要文件的年代范围,并为人口普查局及其研究数据中心提供强大的新资源。

The Minnesota Population Center (MPC) has released linked datasets through its NAPP and IPUMS projects, making them readily accessible to researchers. Prior to the availability of complete count census microdata from the MPC, researchers applied various forms of record-linking software. This essay describes the techniques used in the MPC's linking program and briefly compares this technique with those used by other researchers. The key feature of the MPC linking method is the construction of cumulative name similarity scores, based on approximately 2.5 billion record comparisons; we also use support vector mechanics to classify potential links. This article explains modifications made for the final linked datasets and includes a discussion of the role of weighting variables when using linked data.

明尼苏达人口中心(MPC)通过其NAPP和IPUMS项目发布了相关的数据集,使研究人员可以很容易地访问它们。在MPC提供完整的人口普查微数据之前,研究人员应用了各种形式的记录链接软件。本文描述了MPC连接程序中使用的技术,并简要地将该技术与其他研究人员使用的技术进行了比较。MPC链接方法的关键特征是基于大约25亿条记录的比较,构建了累积的名称相似度分数;我们还使用支持向量力学对潜在链接进行分类。本文解释了对最终关联数据集所做的修改,并讨论了使用关联数据时权重变量的作用。

The North Atlantic Population Project (NAPP) is a massive database of historical census microdata from European and North American countries. The backbone of the project is the unique collection of completely digitized censuses providing information on the entire enumerated populations of each country. In addition, for some countries, the NAPP includes sample data from surrounding census years. In this article, the authors provide a brief history of the project, describe their progress to data and plans for the future, and discuss some potential implications of this unique data resource for social and economic research.

This article constructs new life tables for the white population of the United States in each decade between 1790 and 1900. Drawing from several recent studies, it suggests best estimates of life expectancy at age 20 for each decade. These estimates are fitted to new standards derived from the 1900-02 rural and 1900-02 overall DRA life tables using a two-parameter logit model with fixed slope. The resulting decennial life tables more accurately represent sex-and age-specific mortality rates while capturing known mortality trends.

本文为 1790 年至 1900 年间每个十年的美国白人人口构建了新的生命表。根据最近的几项研究,文章提出了每个年代 20 岁时预期寿命的最佳估计值。这些估计值与从 1900-02 年农村人口生命表和 1900-02 年 DRA 总人口生命表中得出的新标准相匹配,使用的是具有固定斜率的双参数对数模型。由此得出的十年期生命表更准确地反映了特定性别和年龄的死亡率,同时捕捉到了已知的死亡率趋势。

Abstract A compact macromodel of pre-industrial population growth between the Middle Ages and the demographic revolution is proposed. The authors attempt to capture two salient features of the demographic history of this epoch—that is, that population growth was on average slow and cyclical, but that there were phases during which growth was relatively fast. Their model synthesizes Malthusian notions with endogenous technical progress. The latter continually shifts the constraints on population growth. The simulation based on the model is able to reproduce well the estimated size of the European population in this half of the millennium.

In this article, I first consider some interpretive issues regarding the central place of the notion of “family” in the construction of the 1901 Canadian census. I then discuss the meanings of the key variable “relationship to head of family or household” and some implications of the conceptualization and classification of dwellings, families, and households in the Canadian Families Project (CFP). Following international census practices from the middle of the nineteenth century, the Canadian population was nominatively recorded in the context of family dwellings or normal places of abode. Before 1901, the central organizing notion of the census was the “census family,” considered to be any person living alone or any number of persons living together under one roof and having their food provided together. “Census families” were first defined in the first national census of 187 1 and carried over to 189 1, although the general idea was more or less taken for granted in the nominative colonial censuses of 1851 and 1861. In 1901, however, rather different and more specific definitions were introduced. Presumably, the seemingly obvious and “natural” allocations of individuals to dwellings and families in the earlier censuses had been deemed inappropriate or problematic. No clear rationale for the changes exists, either in the instructions to enumerators or in surviving archival evidence. Clearly, however, the new definitions in 1901 aimed to make explicit the classification of the Canadian population in three ways-by dwelling units, by households, and by families. Dwelling houses were numbered in “order of visitation” in the first columns of Schedule 1 of the enumeration.’ The instructions to enumerators went on to distinguish families from households, referring to the former in a quite restricted sense, as consisting of parents and sons and daughters “. . . united in a living and housekeeping community. . . .” But the instructions allowed that families could include relatives and servants. Households, in contrast, included “. . . all persons in a housekeeping community, whether related by ties of blood or not, but usually with one of their number occupying the position of head.” Thus, the 1901 census definitions corresponded more or less to the distinctions often made in family history between forms of “extension” and “augmentation,” with the exception that servants were to be included among extended family members. Finally, the new census definitions classified single persons living alone and carrying on their own housekeeping as “households,” whereas they had been included as a type of “census family” in prior censuses.2 Beyond these distinctions, a key variable was included, the putative relationship of each member of a family or household to its head. In the CFP’s 5 percent national sample, there are a total of 332 different recorded entries of such relationships, including single entries for missing and illegible ones.3 Many of these entries ar

ongitudinal panel studies and computerized record linkage are both now common in historical research. L Panel study research designs are found in nearly every quantitative historical work and underlie even such simple comparisons across time as those of decennial census data within given geographic areas such as regions, states, counties, or towns. In addition, the construction of multiple-source databases through record-linkage techniques is central to historical studies ranging from European family reconstitutions to cross-census studies of American occupational mobility. Despite their widespread use, even simple panel studies confront methodological concerns that are profound yet seldom addressed. The lesscommon combined use of linked records within panel studies (Bideau and Brunet 1993) also presents several unique problems and concerns. Our objective is to discuss methods used by the Connecticut Valley Historical Demography Project (CVHDP) and to evaluate the validity and reliability of the longitudinal database the project constructed. We will consider methods and general issues of primary data quality, research design, geographic sampling, and computerized record linkage. The objectives of the CVHDP are to examine various aspects of urban and industrial change significant to the continuing high levels of mortality in select rapidly growing Massachusetts towns-Northampton and Holyoke-of the late nineteenth century.' Initial findings of this project have, for example, suggested the importance of rapid population growth and aging population composition in maintaining high levels of New England mortality (Hautaniemi, Swedlund, and Anderton 1999). The database required for our individuallevel mortality analysis was constructed through a computerized record linkage of census records and corresponding death records from years immediately following the census. Our longitudinal research design thus links census and death records to analyze mortality variation across periods, or panels, defined by the timing of decennial censuses.

L Panel study research designs are found in nearly every quantitative historical work and underlie even such simple comparisons across time as those of decennial census data within given geographic areas such as regions, states, counties, or towns. In addition, the construction of multiple-source databases through record-linkage techniques is central to historical studies ranging from European family reconstitutions to cross-census studies of American occupational mobility. Despite their widespread use, even simple panel studies confront methodological concerns that are profound yet seldom addressed. The lesscommon combined use of linked records within panel studies (Bideau and Brunet 1993) also presents several unique problems and concerns. Our objective is to discuss methods used by the Connecticut Valley Historical Demography Project (CVHDP) and to evaluate the validity and reliability of the longitudinal database the project constructed. We will consider methods and general issues of primary data quality, research design, geographic sampling, and computerized record linkage. The objectives of the CVHDP are to examine various aspects of urban and industrial change significant to the continuing high levels of mortality in select rapidly growing Massachusetts towns-Northampton and Holyoke-of the late nineteenth century.' Initial findings of this project have, for example, suggested the importance of rapid population growth and aging population composition in maintaining high levels of New England mortality (Hautaniemi, Swedlund, and Anderton 1999).

he Canadian Families Project (CFP) is a five-year research project funded by the Social Sciences and T Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRCC) and by five participating universities. The research team includes fourteen scholars, three of whom are postdoctoral fellows, as well as several graduate students and two computer programmers.’ Disciplines represented include anthropology, demography, geography, history, and sociology. These simple facts are essential for those who wish to know something about the CFP’s national sample of the 1901 census of Canada. In its conception and its content, the database bears the imprint of its Canadian provenance in the 1990s. When the project was conceived in the early 1990s, SSHRCC did not fund the creation of databases or research tools; it did (and still does) fund major collaborative and interdisciplinary research projects under its Major Collaborative Research Initiative (MCRI) program. Our national sample of the 1901 census was created, therefore, as part of an interdisciplinary research project on family in Canada. To this extent our national sample of the 1901 cencus differs in its origins from most public use microdata samples (PUMS) created from historical censuses in the United States, and from the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series (IPUMS) created by the Minnesota Historical Census Project (Ruggles and Menard 1995; Sobek and Ruggles 1999). The articles in this issue are, therefore, explorations by scholars from several disciplines, each of whom has a specific research agenda connected to the study of family in Canada. Canada has seen a number of large projects in which historians have worked with scholars from other disciplines. In the field of family history, however, major collaborative projects have not appeared outside the Province of Quebec, where there is a long tradition of team research in the study of population and family.* The CFP is the first collaborative research project that focuses on the history of families in Canada as a whole. We propose to revisit family not as a singular or unchanging social unit but as a dynamic set of associations varying with time, region, class, gender, and other historical conditions of Canadian experience. We hope to set our findings in the context of the wider international literature, and it follows that we are interested in the relationship between family and the sweeping changes associated with industrialization and urbanization. Given our sensitivity to the plurality of family and household, and given the heterogeneity of the Canadian cultural mosaic, it is unlikely that we shall find a specifically Canadian type of family or household at any time in our past. For historians as much as for the makers of constitutions, the Canadian geopolitical entity remains a problematic and fragile analytical unit. We wish nevertheless to move beyond the microhistorical and regional focus of Canadian family history, to seek commonalities and patterns of fa
