Within Families, Across Borders: Lifespans of U.S. Immigrants Born in 1850–1890 Relative to Origin, Destination, and Siblings
U.S. immigrants born in 1850-1890 had shorter lifespans than U.S.-born Whites. This mortality penalty was concentrated among specific origin groups. Migrants generally outlived origin populations and nonmigrant siblings. Migration-mortality patterns varied by origin, reflecting both origin and destination contexts.
Parental Loss in Early Years and Adult Family Formation: Evidence From U.S. Cohorts Born 1850–1910
Objective This paper examines the long‐term impact of parental loss in early years on family formation as adults in U.S. cohorts born between 1850 and 1910, focusing on age assortative mating and the timing of first childbirth. Background Early parental loss can profoundly shape children's adult family formation trajectories. However, its impact remains unclear due to multiple mechanisms—such as social control and economic constraints—as well as …
A Comparison of Rule-based and Supervised Machine Learning Approaches for Record Linkage of Italian Historical Data
Parish and civil records are crucial sources for reconstructing historical socio-demographic processes. However, their analysis presents significant challenges, particularly the need to digitize data and link life events across documents that lack formal identifiers. With the growing availability of digitized records, the development and evaluation of automated linkage techniques have become increasingly important. This study compares rule-based …
Sociodemographic variation in family structures and geographic proximity between adult children and parents in Europe
BACKGROUNDFamily structures shape caregiving dynamics and are considered key drivers of inequality.While research often focuses on partners and children, recent studies highlight the role of grandparents and parents of adult children in shaping informal labor demands.However, sociodemographic differences in multigenerational structures remain understudied.Most research focuses on multigenerational coresidence, despite evidence that geographic pro…
Unions, technology and social class inequalities in the US, 1984-2019
Earnings inequality in the US has risen in recent decades, with social class inequalities being a central component of this trend. While technological change and de-unionisation are considered key contributors to increased earnings dispersion, their specific influence on inequalities between employees' social classes has received limited attention. This study theoretically and empirically investigates the relationship between technological change…
Trends in assortative mating in the United States, 1700–1910. Evidence from FamiLinx data
Couple formation and assortative mating significantly influence societal structures, as marriages between individuals from diverse geographical or social backgrounds promote intra-family diversity. Understanding these patterns is crucial for grasping the demographic processes that shape contemporary societies. However, the scarcity of comprehensive data has impeded progress in this area. This paper aims to fill this gap by investigating assortati…
Historical Patterns in the Intergenerational Transmission of Lifespan and Longevity: A Research Note on U.S. Cohorts Born Between 1700 and 1900
This research note examines historical trends in lifespan inequality and the intergenerational transmission of lifespan and longevity in the United States over the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries. We contribute to the literature by expanding the estimates of the familial component beyond parent–child associations to include multigenerational and horizontal classes of relatives of different sexes. We also examine how lifespan inequ…
Birth month and adult lifespan: A within-family, cohort, and spatial examination using FamiLinx data in the United States (1700-1899)
Background : Research has shown that the circumstances surrounding birth may influence the timing of death. In the northern hemisphere, children born in spring and summer have a shorter lifespan than those born in fall and winter. Objective : We describe the effect of month of birth on adult lifespan (50+) in the United States in three ways. First, we estimate it between and within groups of siblings, accounting for unobserved factors at the fami…
