The following study of occupations will focus on the occupation of the male guardians listed on the reception orders, cross-referenced with the occupations listed in the decennial census household schedules. The paucity of information in the census records about mother's occupation prohibits a detailed discussion of the work of the primary caregiver except in cases in which the father had died or the mother herself signed the reception orders.

The total number of admissions depended not only on the financial position of the society but also on the numbers who may have died or been discharged in a particular year. Thus, the extraordinarily large number of admissions in 1864 reflected not only the relatively prosperous condition of the charity but also the fact that several inmates had died from an outbreak of Scarlatina.

Several factors may account for this. There was a commonly held belief in medical circles that mental deficiency was more prevalent in boys than girls. The general reports of the 1871 and 1881 census confirm this, the latter estimating that congenital mental deficiency was 30 percent more likely in male offspring than in female; General Report, Census of England and Wales, 1881, PP [1883] 80, 657. The disproportionate admission rate may have been a direct policy of the Board of Management, although the annual reports do not reveal any stated ratios or "goals." The selection of boys may have reflected the general bias of Victorian society toward the need for self-sufficient males and older cultural notions of apprenticeship.

Out of 2,004 patients, 1,902 had a listed status on admission; of these, 1,202 were charitable, 298 were subsidized, and 399 private. Five percent were unlisted. These statuses are relevant to the time of first admissions only. It is clear from the records that some inmates moved between categories. There was no bar to private families who sought to secure for children (already admitted to the asylum) election as reduced fee-paying cases. Similarly, familie receiving charitable relief could seek reelection for another five-year term for patients who were in the asylum or since discharged. In addition, some patients moved from private to reduced fee paying or vice versa. These changes were not systematically recorded, so only the status of first admissions can be relied on.

The second medical superintedent of Earlswood, John Langdon Down, left the asylum in 1858 when it wad discovered he was taking fees for private patients housed outside the institution. He quickly established his own asylum, Normansfield, for more than 100 private patients. See Lilian Zihni, "A History of the Relationship between the Concept and the Treatment of People with Down's Syndrome in Britain and America, 1867-1967," (Ph.D. diss., Univesity of London, 1990).

The use of published census data in migration studies
-
ed. E. Antony Wrigley (Cambridge, UK)
-
Migration, of course, is notoriously difficult to gauge, and I will be using only the crudest of indicators - namely, a comparison of the county of birth of parents versus the county of thier census enumeration. D. E. Baines, "The Use of Published Census Data in Migration Studies," in Nineteenth Century Society: Essays in the Use of Quantitative Methods for the Study of Social Data, ed. E. Antony Wrigley (Cambridge, UK, 1972), 311-35. There have been several studies to suggest that individuals giving berthplace information to census enumerators were not always consistent in their identification of town of birth. Both Anderson and Dupree found approximately 8 percent of cases in their respective samples gave different birthplaces from the previous census. This does not hold true for the identification of county of birth, as cited in Marguerite W. Dupree, "Family Structure in the Staffordshire Potteries, 1840-1880" (D.Phil, thesis, Oxford, 1981), 428.

The mean household size for England and Wales (1861 census) was 5.4. One would expect larger than normal household sizes, because households including Earlswood families would have, by definition, at least one parent and at least one child. This, however, does not detract from the point about life-cycle poverty, made below.

Note the similarity to Mark Finnane's case study of 133 admission warrants for the Omagh district asylum, which revealed that 80 percent were living with their nearest relative in a "nuclear family," Finnane, Insanity and the Insane in Post-Famine Ireland, 132.

Brenchley: A study in migratory movements in a mid-nineteenth century rural parish

Wojciechowska found that 89 percent of agricultural workers in Brenchley, Kent, in 1851 were living in their county of birth. Bogusia Wojciechowska, "Brenchley: A Study in Migratory Movements in a Mid-Nineteenth Century Rural Parish," Local Population Studies, 41 (1988): 35. Other local studies based on male heads of household vary in the residence from 53 percent in a Durham coal field to 97 percent of a Yorkshire ironstone mine.

Given the distribution of children, one would expect a randome selection of the children to be weighted toward the higher ranks. For example, the probability of the ranking first, second, and third of three families with one child, two children, and three children would be 1/2, 1/3, and 1/6, respectively. Thus, to evaluate properly the ranking data, one must set up a probability of the respective ranks and compare the data found with it.

The first-ranked children were significant at the 5 percent level using a two sample t test and an f test, and significant to a 1.2 percent level using a z test (the NH assumed the proportions of families in category 1 [random] and category 2 [ranks found] were equal in the two samples). The combined first and second rank are significant to a 0.2 percent level. The first-and second-eldest children of charitable families were also significant using the Kolgomorov-Smirnov test.
