Missing from parish records: Anglican and nonconformist occupational differences and the economy of Wales c. 1817
Recent studies of male occupations have used Anglican baptisms as a source. However, in areas where nonconformity was strong, a significant proportion of baptisms were missing from parish registers: in Wales, around a quarter of births were to Nonconformist fathers in the years 1813–1820. This study analyses whether there were significant differences between the occupations of Anglican and nonconformist fathers based on a 14 per cent sample of We…

This study explores the part played by women farmers in the agricultural community of Nantconwy, a hundred in the eastern part of Snowdonia…

A study undertaken for Oxfam GB supports previous findings that traditional human-resource practices in the humanitarian field, with many staff emplo…
