There was never a hard copy made. This was a gentleman's private thesis for 
a University in Portugal.

Thanks Jeremy.  I'd be happy to support the author by purchasing a hard 
copy if they're still available.

I have a 80 page book about demographic statistics in Ribeira Seca. It has 
tables and charts with all of that. I will scan and copy it as soon as I can.


Thanks!

2017-03-11 Thread 'John Raposo' via Azores Genealogy
The infant mortality rate was high in all the islands (and was probably high in 
the whole world; in America most families lost more than one child. If you walk 
through an old New England cemetery where people often had family plots, you'll 
see many small markers in the form of lambs marking the graves of the babies 
that never made it) but the mortality rate for foundlings was scandalously high.

The mortality rate for infants and young children was high for all the islands. 
If you start going through the Obitos you will see many infants and young 
children (just the first name is used) as compared to adults. If you were to 
ask me I would say that greater than 80% were children in the first half of the 
19th century.

Mortality rates were high in general in the western world at the time. Even in 
the wealthy. Thomas Jefferson, for example, and his wife had 6 children in 10 
years. Only 2 survived more than 6 years.

It just aches my heart when looking through Obits and seeing so many for your
