长期以来，学者们一直对家庭以外亲属的历史变化感兴趣，但很少有长期变化的可比证据。虽然人们普遍认为，个人在历史上与亲属住得很近，但在国家一级没有系统的措施来评估历史上的亲属关系。随着美国人口普查数据从综合公共使用微数据系列（IPUMS）的历史完整计数的发布，从1790年到1940年，美国全国父系亲属接近度的可靠估计计算。定义为在一个查点区内非随机同名的概率，父系亲属接近度的估计依赖于人口普查中家庭的顺序排列。在美国，父系亲属关系经历了一个长期的下降，从1790年的近50%的家庭下降到1940年的17%。亲属关系的年龄模式在整个生命过程中表现出很大的差异，区域差异表明经济和人口条件的影响。亲属关系的下降反映了城市化和农业的衰落，亲属关系的减少，潜在亲属关系之间的距离越来越远，以及对近亲居住的偏好的变化。这是第一项研究，以产生一个系统的估计父系亲属接近在国家一级的美国1790年和1940年之间。研究人员可以使用这种有意义的父系亲属接近度来更好地解释其与其他人口统计学行为和结果的关系，如生育率，死亡率和移民选择。
Historical change in the availability of kin beyond the household has long interested scholars, but there has been little comparable evidence on long-run change. While generally accepted that individuals lived near kin historically, no systematic measures have been available to assess historical kin propinquity at the national level. With the release of historical complete count United States census data from the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series (IPUMS), a robust estimate of patrilineal kin propinquity for the United States nationally from 1790 to 1940 is calculated. Defined as the probability of non-random isonymy within an enumeration district, the estimate of patrilineal kin propinquity relies on the sequential ordering of households in the census. The United States experienced a long-run decline in patrilineal kin propinquity from nearly 50% of households in 1790 to 17% of households in 1940. The age patterns of kin propinquity show substantial variation across the life course, and regional differences demonstrate the impact of economic and demographic conditions. The decline in kin propinquity reflected urbanization and the decline of agriculture, declining kin availability, growing distance between potential kin links, and a change in preferences of living near kin. This is the first study to produce a systematic estimate of patrilineal kin propinquity at the national level for the United States between 1790 and 1940. Researchers can use this meaningful measure of patrilineal kin propinquity to better explain its relationships with other demographic behaviors and outcomes such as fertility, mortality, and migration choices.
