* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/* This Section of the do file imports the original Hollingsworth genealogical
dataset and generates the following variables:
1.1. Demographic characteristics:
gender; age at marriage; age at death; birth order (excluding heirs);
celibacy.
1.2. Social status:
own rank; parental rank; spouse rank; rank separating 6 titles.
1.3. Peerage of origin (England and Wales, Scotland, Ireland).
own; parental; highest; spouse.
1.4. Assortative matching by social status:
married a commoner; married an heir.
1.5. Exposure to the interruption (1861-63):
age at the start of the interruption; synthetic probability to marry
during the interruption; synthetic probability for the placebo samples;
married in 1861-63.
1.6. Cohort variables.
size of the female cohort.

* Manual corrections

* Hollingsworth dataset. However, for these individuals, the names or surnames
* in the entries are not consistently reported. For the sake of illustration, take
* the marriage between Edward Keppel Coke and Diana Mary Blanche Georgiana Ellis.
* In Diana's entry (refno=59654) both names are correctly reported so I was able
* to find their country seats and the corresponding distance. However, in Edward's
* entry (refno=154454) his name is correctly reported, but his wife only appears
* as "Diana," making it impossible to find her country seat and to calculate
* the distance. The following lines correct for these mistakes, assigning both
* spouses' entries the same distance.

* 3. FAMILY LANDHOLDINGS FROM BATEMAN (1883)
* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/* This Section of the do file adds information on family landholdings to the
prepared Hollingsworth genealogical data. The code is organized into the
following sub-sections:
3.1. Import data for baseline sample (women aged 15-35 in 1861)
3.2. Import data for appendix sample (men marrying in 1851-75)
3.3. Sorting by landholdings variables
* ============================================================================ */
* ==============================================================================
* 3.1 IMPORT DATA FOR BASELINE SAMPLE
* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/* Note: Here I import the family landholdings for women in my baseline
sample and their (first) husbands. A woman's family landholdings refers
to the acreage owned by her birth family (idem for men). Out of a potential
sample of 644 women (peers' daughters aged 15-35 in 1861 who ever married,
excluding second-marriages, women married to foreigners, and members of the
royal family), I found the family landholdings for 324 women and their
husbands. Eighty-one percent of the lost observations correspond to women
marrying landless commoners. The remaining 19 percent are women whose families
(or whose husbands families) owned fewer than 2,000 acres, and hence, were
not listed in Bateman (1883).
I constructed this dataset in three steps:
(i) First, I digitized all 596 men who appear both in Bateman and in
Hollingsworth's dataset.
(ii) Second, I coded 353 of their wives' birth families.
The data from steps 1 and 2 is in the dataset bateman-master.txt. The file
also contains 70 entries in Bateman for men who do not appear in the
Hollingsworth dataset directly but that (first) married in 1858-66
to a peers' daughter in the baseline sample. From these two steps, I found
both spouses' family landholdings for 227 couples in my baseline sample.
This is indicated by the variables fsource (for women) and sfsource
(for their husbands):
fsource = "bateman_master (notes)"
sfsource = "bateman_master (notes)"
Where notes lists the reference number in the bateman-master datset from
which the data comes from (and indicates whether this corresponds to their
landholdings in bateman-master or to the landholdings of spouses in bateman-master)
(iii) Third, I searched the remaining baseline sample's spouses (families)
in Bateman's book manually.
From step three, I found 97 additional couples. This is indicated by the
variables sfsource (for their husbands):
sfsource = "Bateman 1883 (notes)"
Where notes lists the page and the entry (i.e., the title of the landholder)
where the info comes from in Bateman's book. */
