Abstract
"A one percent sample drawn from the 1971 Census (the OPCS Longitudinal Study) [of England and Wales] was used to study the migration patterns of women in the early years of first marriage. Information from the retrospective fertility and migration history contained in the 1971 Census record was analyzed and the results show migration at, or soon after, marriage to be almost universal." The focus is on internal migration. Factors considered include marriage duration, age, husband's occupation, and timing of births. The value of the OPCS Longitudinal Study as a source of migration data is noted. (summary in FRE) excerptEntities:
