Predicting smallpox epidemics
We analysis data on death due to smallpox in two subdivided Finish populations, the relatively isolated Åland Islands and the mainland parish of Kitee. The data span a 135‐year time period (1750–1885). Logisitic regression and Cox proportional hazards models are used to assess the effects of predictive variables on (1) the probability that an individual subdivision experiences an epidemic and (2) the length of the time period between two epidemic…
Smallpox and Its Eradication in Finland
Cause-specific mortality studies are vital for a full understanding of the determinants of mortality and epidemiological transitions. The exceptional detail and accuracy of archival materials in Finland, as well as the length of the period covered, offer an ideal opportunity for such analyses. Focussing upon the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the history, decline, and eventual eradication of smallpox is detailed. It has often been…
Marital migration and genetic structure in Kitee, Finland
A genetic analysis of marital migration in Kitee, Finland, is presented. The data are based on 9970 marriages which took place between 1750 and 1877. The results of this analysis are compared with those of previous studies of the population of the Åland Islands, Finland. Analysis of inter-subdivision genetic kinship matrices shows that genetic heterogeneity in Kitee is substantially less than in Åland. This is due primarily to higher rates of mig…
Population structure in the Connecticut Valley. I. Marital migration
This study reports on an analysis of marital migration among 12 communities in the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts during the years 1790–1849. Genetic inferences are drawn, and the requisite assumptions considered. The effect of geographic distance on genetic kinship is predicted using Malécot's isolation‐by‐distance model. The resulting estimates are discussed in terms of geographic and historical factors. The configuration of communit…
Population structure of Alaskan and Siberian indigenous communities
Genetic data consisting of 14 red cell antigen groups and 11 serum and erythrocytic protein marker systems from four Eskimo populations of the Norton Sound area of Alaska are reported. The population structure of these four groups is analyzed both separately and within the larger context by comparison to 15 other circumpolar groups. These analyses reveal a good fit between genetic structure, geographic distribution, linguistic affiliation, and th…

The genetic structure of Finland
The Finnish gene pool derives primarily from a relatively homogeneous Finno‐Ugric population established during the Iron Age (100 B.C.–800 A.D.) in the southwest and southeast of Finland. Gene flow from Sweden to the southwest coastal areas, dating from prehistoric times, as well as the patterns of settlement and migration throughout Finland during the past 1000 years, appear to have been the major biosocial factors underlying the genetic structu…
