Scotland s People

The General Register Office for Scotland has digitised all of Scotland s Statutory Registers of Births Deaths amp Marriages since civil registration started on 1st January 1855 The Censuses of Scotland that have been preserved and open for public view those for 1841 1901 can be consulted The 1911 Census will remain closed until one day after the 100 years closure period elapses in England and Wales they have opened the 1911 Census for consultation two years early Scotland s Birth Death and Marriage registers have always been more detailed than their English Welsh and Irish counterparts The date amp place of your Parents marriage appears on your birth certificate Your time of birth and time of death has always been recorded Both of the parents names are recorded on the marriage and death certificates If you should happen to be married more than once the names of all of your spouses are recorded on the death certificate This means that women are indexed under all surnames that they have been known by during their life In contrast in England and Wales they only record the last married surname of a woman on the death index making it harder to find a female death In 1855 the General Register Office for Scotland was particularly enthusiastic about the information recorded on the certificates On the birth certificate they recorded the child s position in the family ie 5th child and 2nd daughter age and birthplace of the parents and finally number of years the parents had resided in registration district of child s birth On the 1855 marriage certificate they recorded the number of years since the previous marriage ended and the names and ages of children born during the previous marriage The 1855 death certificate also recorded the names and ages of all children and year of death if they had died first together the place of birth of the deceased and the number of years resident in the district of death In 1862 the General Register Office for Scotland stopped recording the name of t

Famine Memorial Dublin

<a href= http multitext ucc ie d Famine >multitext ucc ie d Famine< a> How many died Because data are poor historians arrive at different estimates of the number that died In the period 1846 1851 between 1 000 000 and 1 500 000 people died we cannot be certain of the number Besides births and marriages dropped significantly Those hardest hit were the agricultural labourers the class that had increased most rapidly in numbers in the decades before the Famine As Karl Marx stated The Irish famine of 1846 killed more than 1 000 000 people but it killed poor devils only Capital i pt vii chapter 25 The poor were the first and the most to die The unprecedented scale of deaths was not due to starvation alone infectious diseases such as typhus relapsing fever and cholera killed very many Famine deaths and diseases Starvation is a slow killer First the body uses up all its deposits of fat The metabolic rate sinks and physical and mental activity declines Blood pressure falls The internal organs including the intestines degenerate The skin grows paper thin dull grey and blotchy Fluid is retained in the body famine oedema Normally one third of body weight is lost before death occurs The final stages are uncontrolled diarrhoea and cardiovascular collapse Children under the age of five are particularly vulnerable They suffer from muscle waste a wizened and shrunken appearance that makes them look like old men and old women swelling of the abdomen and lower limbs lesions and darkening of the skin and diarrhoea Reports describe these conditions a vast number of impotent folk whose gaunt and wasted frames and ghastly emaciated faces were too obvious signs of the suffering they had endured The little boys and girls presented a hideous sight In many instances their heads had become bald and their faces wrinkled like old men and women of seventy or eighty years of age Thomas Armstrong My life in Connaught London 1906 13 repr in L A Clarkson amp E
