| Keywords: | OCCUPATIONS LABOUR FORCE AGE DISTRIBUTION CENSUS RECORDS 1851 England |
| Description: | <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>These data were collected as part of a research project run by Dr Leigh Shaw-Taylor and Professor E.A. Wrigley and funded by the Economic and Social Research Council: Male occupational structure and economic growth in England 1750-1851 (RES-000-23-0131). <br> <br> The aim of this project was to reconstruct the evolution of England's male occupational structure from c.1750 to 1851. The underlying aim was to improve our understanding of the industrial revolution. The results of the project have not, at the time of writing, been published.<br> <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> This data collection contains three tables. All of them derive from the tables of occupational data for English registration counties published in the 1851 census report. These tables reported occupations for males and females in five-year age bands in 458 occupational categories. The main table (occ_ages_county_eng_1851.txt) contains the county level counts for each recorded occupation by sex and age interval. The other two summary tables (ages_county_eng_1851.txt and occ_county_eng_1851.txt) contain the horizontal and vertical totals printed in the report. Thus, the first summary table contains the printed totals of the numbers of males and females in each five year age interval while the latter summary table contains the printed totals of the numbers of males and females in each occupational category irrespective of age.<br> <br> Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research.<br> <br> |
