    Description

    Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.

    This machine-readable version of John Williams' Digest of Welsh Historical Statistics is the result of a collaboration between the Statistical Directorate of the National Assembly for Wales, the History Data Service and the Centre for Data Digitisation and Analysis at Queen's University Belfast.
    John Williams' Digest of Welsh Historical Statistics is intended to provide a service for those working on the history of modern Wales. It arises from a belief that the quantitative element is a necessary and important part of the historical record; from an awareness that it was an aspect that was particularly inaccessible for scholars of Welsh history; and from a conviction that some encouragement in the use of quantitative material was necessary. It is modelled on the two volumes dedicated to British historical statistics: Mitchell, B.R. and Deane, P. (1962) Abstract of British historical statistics and Mitchell, B.R. and Jones, H.G. (1971) Second abstract of British historical statistics.
    Main Topics:
    The main tables are:


    Total population and intercensal change by sex by county, 1801-1971
    Number of females per 1000 males by county, 1801-1971
    Age and marital condition by sex, 1841-1971
    Area/acreage by county, 1841-1971
    Population of Registration Counties as constituted at the time of each Census, 1841-1911
    Comparative area and population of Registration, Ancient and Administrative Counties, 1891
    Parish Register returns of baptisms, burials and marriages, 1700-1840
    Estimated mid-year population by sex, 1841-1974
    Estimated mid-year population totals by county, 1903-1974
    Number of deaths by sex, crude death-rates and infant mortality, 1838-1974
    Number of births and birth-rates, 1839-1974
    Number of marriages and rate per 1000 population, 1839-1974
    Population of towns, 1801-1971
    Net migration and natural increase, number and per cent for each, inter-censal period, by county, 1841-1971
    Number born in Wales and living in United States, 1850-1970
    Number of Welsh speakers by sex, by county and county borough, 1891-1971
    Welsh speakers as a percentage of total population over three years of age, by county and county borough, 1891-1971
    Welsh-speaking population by age, 1901-1971
