In this article we summarize the methods and present the initial results from a linkage of [U.S.] genealogical records from the Mormon Historical Demography Project (MHDP) to records from the 1880 Manuscript Census of Utah Territory. Our primary objective is to recount the linkage methods involved and to evaluate the representativeness of the genealogical records as reflected in the correspondence between longitudinal and census data. The data sets concern population characteristics household size family characteristics and fertility. (EXCERPT)

This article reports on one system for using relational databases to manage a large historical data collection project. It endorses the use of relational database systems for large linked databases. This system incorporates a number of files some of them containing data and others containing cross-references between files. Data concerning the residents of Gillespie County Texas from the censuses of 1850 1860 1870 1800 1900 and 1910 are linked and used to compile complete life histories of individuals. (EXCERPT)

This paper is a brief introduction to the Public Use Sample (PUS) from the 1910 United States Census of Population that was created at the University of Pennsylvania and recently released to the public. It contains a 1-in-250 sample of the total population included in the census producing a total of 88814 households and 366239 individuals. The 1910 PUS is available in machine-readable form from the ICPSR at the University of Michigan. (EXCERPT)

This paper focuses on the present methodology of computerized population registers and on the possible next generation of such systems. For these registers to survive their founders and serve multiple purposes they must be designed as evolving (as opposed to static) entities; the central element of such an approach would be a dynamic updating facility. In our view this poses a major challenge to both demographers and computer scientists. The paper is based on experience with the reconstitution of the Quebec population from 1608-1760 which was undertaken by the Research Program in Historical Demography at the University of Montreal.

This paper [examines] the marital and fertility experience of women born between 1800 and 1899 who participated in the settlement colonization and development of a region that marked one of the last frontier settlements in [U.S.] history. The focus is on the effects of different marriage patterns particularly polygyny on fertility. "In conclusion cumulative fertility behavior within periods of exposure was found to be similar across substantial variations in both marital histories and arrangements." (EXCERPT)
