A hazard model analysis examining inferential evidence of migration from the Port-city of Viana do Castelo, Minho, 1834-1931.
"This paper is an attempt to analyse the determinants of out-migration of the elite from the Portuguese city of Viana do Castelo [from 1834-1931].  The data used are derived from a reconstruction of this electorate using record linkage methods.  Indirect evidence of emigration is available from passport books, and evidence of death is available with cemetery lists.  The paper discusses methodological issues in the estimation of hazard models of duration spent under observation in the elite.  The analysis suggests that, while out-migration was not significantly dependent on age, or marital status, there were large occupational differentials, and significant period effects."
