It arises from a belief that the quantitative element is a necessary and important part of the historical record; from an awareness that it was an aspect that was particularly inaccessible for scholars of Welsh history; and from a conviction that some encouragement in the use of quantitative material was necessary. It is modelled on the two volumes dedicated to British historical statistics: Mitchell, B.R. and Deane, P. (1962) &lt;i&gt;Abstract of British historical statistics&lt;/i&gt; and Mitchell, B.R. and Jones, H.G. (1971) &lt;i&gt;Second abstract of British historical statistics&lt;/i&gt;.<B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> The main tables are:<br> <br>Poor law expenditure and receipts, 1748-1937<br> Number of paupers relieved, indoor and outdoor, 1840-1939<br> Income, by county, 1792-1937<br> Expenditure, by county, 1792-1937<br> Income and expenditure, 1957-1974<br> Expenditure on highways, 1812-1914; police, 1857-1914; and education, 1903-1914<br> <br> Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research.<br> 1976 - 198501 January 197601 January 1985 Wales Local authoritiesPoorAdministrative units (geographical/political)National Administrative units in Wales TextNumeric Time Series No sampling (total universe) Transcription of existing materialsCompilation or synthesis of existing material <p>The Data Collection is available to UK Data Service registered users subject to the <a href="https://ukdataservice.ac.uk/app/uploads/cd137-enduserlicence.pdf" target="_blank">End User Licence Agreement</a>.</p> See <restrctn> https://oai.ukdataservice.ac.uk:8443/oai/provider 4103 2024-11-28T07:24:26Z ddi:codebook:2_5
