Summary

Parishes: representation and Seasonal Types, by county

The substance of the appendix is the Table A.1, a list of the parishes in the sample. A county's non-market parishes are listed first; the county's market towns, according to Adams' Index Villaris of 1700, follow, in italics. The table touches on the representativeness of the 542 parish sample, showing the number of the sample's parishes in each county and the proportion of the county's total that the sample represents.

The table then displays the Seasonal Types calculated for each parish, according to the rules of Chapter 3, in the Early (1561–1640), Middle (1661–1704), and Late (1741–1820) periods. A‘ . ’ in the place of a Seasonal Type indicates that fewer than twenty-four marriages were recorded over the eighty year period. The geobox (rectilinear divisions of England's area) into which each parish fell is also given.

In the final column of the main list the contributions of others to the 542 parish sample are noted. ‘PHE’ indicates that the parish was one of the 404 parishes used by Wrigley and Schofield in the Population History of England. For these parishes, the map coordinates and farming type of each parish, and their status as market towns was also provided by the Cambridge Group. Of the other 138 parishes, the gifts of marriage data from John Broad and Susan Wright are indicated by ‘BW’, and those from Glynis Reynolds by ‘+’.
