This article aims to provide some descriptive statistics about the deaths in Chioggia, between 1629 and 1631. Many details regarding the nature and socio-demographic characteristics of the deaths are provided, as well as the life expectancy for a three-year period. Results suggest that casualties were most severe in 1629 and 1630, rather than in 1631, that the death rate among women was worse than that among men, even if the former had a longer life expectancy, and that married women had an edge over widows in terms of survival probability. A list of the most common surnames is also provided
