Abstract
Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.
The Great Britain Historical Database has been assembled as part of the ongoing Great Britain Historical GIS Project. The project aims to trace the emergence of the north-south divide in Britain and to provide a synoptic view of the human geography of Britain at sub-county scales. Further information about the project is available on A Vision of Britain webpages, where users can browse the database's documentation system online.
Main Topics:
Court-level small debt statistics for pre-1914 and 1938 England and Wales.
Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research.
