I typed in WEST for deaths 1889-1899 in Hackney and got about 50 results.

When I changed it to WEST* for 1889 - 1899 in Hackney I got 98 results which matched the number from the other sample.

These results -

Under 5 years - 45 deaths
Aged 6 - 20 years - 5 deaths
Aged 21 - 40 years - 8 deaths
Aged 41 - 60 years - 19 deaths
Aged 60 - 80 years - 14 deaths
Aged 80+ years - 7 deaths

Total - 98 deaths

It's great as it shows the clear difference between rural and urban communities. Much higher infant and young child mortality rate and fewer people living to 80+

Going to have to change my Monday lesson plan now. Before I just had them drawing a graph but now I think we will collect all the data on Monday morning and draw the graphs in the afternoon.

Total - 98 burials
