This data-set was one of several used to estimate emigration from and migration within Scotland between 1861 and 1911. The data consist of a transcription of total births in Scotland between 1861 and 1911, taken from the 7th-56th Detailed Annual Reports of the Registrar General for Scotland. The variables are: numeric code for county as used in the Scottish Census; name of registration county; year; number of male births; number of female births; total number of births. Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research.
