| Description: | <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P> These data explore changes in English and American consumption between 1550 and 1800. <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> The probate inventories (Parts 1-11) include information about personal wealth, household production, and the possession of consumer durables and semi-durables. The household survey for England circa 1790 (Part 12) contains dietary information as well as information about other household expenditures. The wills from England and America (Part 13) are a source for learning about the kinds of goods people obtained from their families through inheritance. Finally, information pertaining to the distribution network in eighteenth century England is contained in the aggregate county-level data on the shop and peddlers' tax (Part 14).<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> |
