During the XIXth and XXth centuries, society has undergone a deep change. These centuries are centuries of mobility, characterized by geographical, social or economic mobilities. The growth of cities and the appearance of numerous occupations connected to the technical developments (in particular industrialization and transport) or to the services have deeply modified the landscape of professional activities. This evolution is classically analysed throughout the measure of the social mobility, often described in term of professional evolution by using generally the information of the censuses. Proceeding to such an analysis requires, on one hand, a classification of the professional activities adapted to the whole considered period and, on the other hand, a source of homogeneous information on these activities declarations.

The classification of professional activities

The mentions of occupations or activities, even statuses or state, are used since a long time for the social or economic analysis of a population. The accomplishment of the classification of these mentions was made necessary, among others, by the needs of creating categories to gather the data of the enumerations and allow their statistical analysis. Then, sociologists, historians, economists and statisticians have often made numerous groupings adapted to their specific needs1. For a long time, nomenclatures have been also used by the administration for financial purposes. Indeed, in France, the implementation of the capitation in 1695 entailed the creation of 22 classes taxed at different rates. Every person could be connected with one of these classes either directly or indirectly because the statement said that " all those who will not be in the one the aforementioned classes will be imposed and paid the contribution like the aforementioned classes to which they will have most relationship by their profession, state and quality2 ". This classification is quoted in the appendix 1. The law of 1791 on the censuses had planned to collect the information on "the profession and the other way of living ". But we must wait until 1851 to see the question effectively asked 3 and slowly becoming efficient. From 1851 to 1891, in spite of certain variations on the number of economic sections, with a record of 292 in 1866 against usually about ten for the other censuses, the occupations are registered on a mainly sociological base. The appendix 2 presents the categories used in the census of 1872 ordered by a social classification inside five fields. However it is necessary to wait until 1896 to have correct information because the data of the previous censuses presented an important heterogeneousness, which makes that the scientific analyses sometimes begin only in this date without trying to quantify the evolutions during 19th century4. From 1896, the analysis of the productive system becomes an important datum of the censuses with the recording of the profession by professional sectors. Between 1936 and 1939, the first collective agreements begin to take into account the diverse labor categories. In parallel, "trade personnal" appear

with the Matignon’s negotiations of 1936. They will be quoted in the statistics after the war. After World War II, the creation of civil services such as the INSEE (National Institute of the Statistics and the Economic Studies) and the INED (National Institute of Demographic Studies) produces the appearance of new classifications. In France, depending on the periods, these nomenclatures were based on social criteria or on branches of economic activities to end in 1954 in a social and occupational classification ( CSP) based originally on 4 criteria:” The persons belonging to the same category are presumed to may maintain relations between them, have often behaviour or similar opinions, be considered themselves and be considered as the others as belonging to the same category”5. In spite of a certain evolution of this CSP in the diverse censuses, this nomenclature is since used in numerous studies. The third publishing of this nomenclature, of 1954, is presented in the appendix 3.

These diverse classifications are intermediate frames of classification between the grouping of strict titles of occupations and social categories. This requires, to use them, in a heavy work of distribution of the mentions of professional activities between these categories if we analyze declarations of occupations not made directly in these classifications, what is particularly the case for the mentions resulting from acts of registry office in which the declaration of activities are "free" without reference to pre-existent classifications. Parallel of these national classifications, the International Labour Office (BIT) set up, in 1954, a "international typical classification of the occupations". This first classification was replaced by a new version in 1968 (ISCO68 : International Standard Coding of Occupations) intending to allow the comparisons between countries. This nomenclature is developed "so as to constitute a systematic frame for the presentation of the information on the occupations collected in the various countries, to facilitate the international comparisons. The second purpose - which is associated moreover strictly with the precedent is to supply a system of typical international classification which countries can use for the elaboration of their national classification of the occupations "6. This nomenclature allows to identify in a very precise and secure way professional activities. For instance, the preparation of the textile fibres recovers from the big group 7/8/9 " workers and not agricultural workers and heavy plant drivers of transport " and of the subgroup 7-5 of the " workers of the textile industry " and more exactly of the basic group 7-51 of the “ Fibre Preparers". The nomenclature places 10 types of professions there by taking into account different occupations as "Fibre Carder" (7-51-35), "Fibre Lapper" (7-51-40), "Fibre Comber " (7-51-45). Thus, this classification presents the advantage to allow comparisons between countries. However this is not perfectly adapted for the analysis of ancient documents. Then researchers' workgroup of diverse countries developed a codification derived of this one for historic data, particularly those of the XIXth century. This work was ended in the implementation of the codification HISCO7. This classification is based on a hierarchical structure at 4 levels of increasing order of precision: The building blocks of the HISCO scheme : At the highest level there are 8 major groups, which are sub-divided into a total of 83 minor groups (show appendix 4), and 284 unit groups. Unit groups are further divided into occupational categories, of which there are 1881". It is this codification we used here to test its validity in the analysis of professional data stemming from declarations registered in marriage certificates and genealogies of the XIXth and XXth centuries in metropolitan France.

The evolution of the professions in time The analyses of the evolution of the professional activities concern mostly short periods if we consider them with the glance of historians. The current works, going back up to World War II, appear to concern a prehistoric period, especially for certain economists. Nevertheless the knowledge of the main tendencies, on the long term, brings useful information for the deciphering of the mechanisms which were able to intervene in this evolution and still influence the current situation. Naturally the usual techniques of the sociology, with conversations to collect the information are unsuitable if we want to analyze the work of the women since the beginning of the XIXth century for instance. Then it is advisable to use archival sources allowing to identify the activity of the persons, if possible in their family trained. The censuses can give first images for intermittent series of years, with variable intervals. But these were realized by using the schemes of different classifications used by a census in other what can engender some difficulties of analysis: see the work of Marchand and Thélot " Deux siècles de travail en France "8. However these authors tried to reconstitute homogeneous series on the whole period. This work presents the advantage to supply a reference base on the evolution of the big groups of activity in France for XIXth and XXth centuries. Tables in Appendix 5 summarize these data for men and women on one hand for period 1806-1936, in percentage of the working population and for period 1896-1990 in percentage of jobs for the big sectors (agriculture, industry and building, service industry) then, for period 1851-1982 in percentage of the working population in a series of more detailed categories (exploiting Farmer; agricultural Employee; Bosses of the industry and the business; Liberal professions; Managers; Employees; Workers; Domestics of the person; Army and police; Clergy). Another source than the censuses to study the evolution of the activities of French population: the

TRA dataset. Occupations are a very important element in the historical study of mobility. But the interpretation of the social mobility could be developed in a comparison between social and geographical mobility. To try to used this way of study, it is necessary to used data that could give information about these two aspects. The civil registers of marriages seem to be a good source of data for such a research. In this paper we presented some results obtained from the "TRA families" survey. This survey aims at reconstructing the descending patronymic genealogies of 3000 couples who got married between 1803 and 1832. The sample size corresponds to one marriage for 10 000 inhabitants, in 1806, per department. Started by J. Dupâquier at the beginning of the 80's, this research aims at collecting all the births, marriages, divorces and deaths certificates of all peoples whose names started with the three letters TRA (such as Tranchant, Travers, ...). An alphabetic corpus was chosen to facilitate the obtaining of the certificates by consultation of alphabetic index( (containing only date, surname, first name) built every 10 years (Decennal tables: DT) in each local administration (more than 36 000 in France). The choice of the three TRA letters allowed to constitute a sample of names found in all the languages spoken in France (such as Alsatian, Catalan, ...) and which size is as close as possible of a marriage for 10 000 peoples per department. Copies of all the corresponding marriage, birth and death certificates for the 1803-1986 period have to be collected and computerised. The data collection is not yet completed, in particular for the 20th century. If genealogies (manually reconstituted by various correspondents) existed in 1993 for 2965 families, these were often fragmentary. Indeed, the sometimes multiple mentions of residence and profession had not been noted with corresponding year, which is very annoying for a survey concerning the geographical and

social mobility! The controls also put in evidence women's TRA important deficit9. Moreover, numerous persons with a patronymic TRA could not be connected with the couples-origins of 1803-1832 and the analysis of the occupations observed for the period of the years 1970-1986 descendants of these families showed a proportion of more than 60 % of farmers while all the people with another last names analyzed for the same period was of the order of 5 - 6 %, which is a much more realistic value referring to the state of the current French population. These observations confirmed us that to obtain correct genealogies it was necessary to take into account all the persons TRA. This requires to reconstitute neither 3000 families but something about 6000 couples TRA married between 1803 and 1832. Then, a very heavy work of systematic control was undertaken to obtain the most complete possible genealogies. The on-line publishing on Internet of the registry office by departmental archives, for the XIXe century makes easier the task: but we had the surprise to notice by reading systematically DT of the department of Charente-Maritime for instance, that some of marriage certificates had been forgotten: we found approximately 200 for XIXth century (which is 20 % of increase), and were able to complete the quasi-totality of acts already existing as for the mentions of occupations and/or residence. The same check was begun for other departments. The method of acts collection was different for the two periods: for XIXth century, the DT was theoritically systematically found; for XXth century, we had an extract of the national directory of identification of the physical persons thanks to an authorization of the CNIL10 and a special decree in Council of State. This file concerns the still alive persons TRA in 1970 and been born after 1890, as well as those been born after 1945 and died before 1970. Then we asked to town councils the copy of the birth certificates of the concerned persons; then the birth certificates of the parents not appearing in the first demand as well as the marriages and the deaths noted in marginal mentions. There is obviously a problem of exhaustiveness : Indeed, no answers of certain town councils, the sending of birth certificate and not complete copy, but especially the individuals been born between 1902 and 1922 without descent in 1970 cannot be tracked down. To complete, the DT of certain main cities, in particular Paris, was collected, but this is not enough to fill the gaps as the distribution in the time of the marriages shows it.

Annual distribution of the marriages

The annual evolution of the number of the TRA marriages corresponds to that supplied by the General Statistics of France ( SGF) for XIXth century. For XXth century (from 1903), the curve brings to light the main lines of the evolution: decrease of the number of the marriages because of the wars (1870, 1914 and 1939) as well as their recovery observed after both world wars and strong increase of 1813 because of the announcement of the military service exemption for the married men. From 1903, an unhooking, a characteristic of non systematic collection of the DT in the XXth century is sharply visible. Then we haven't representative sample of the whole French population for now, but an important corpus allowing numerous studies if we are aware of the imbalance between two centuries owed to both methods of collection (figure 1: annual distribution of the marriages in the XIXth and XXth centuries). We now have 78568 marriage certificates for period [ 1803-1986 ] again 56000 in 1993 ; with 53 % of men's TRA marriages and 46,9 % of women's TRA marriages.

9 The estimation was aroud 20% of missing TRA women observed in 1993 when the CNRS transfert us the data and the direction of the survey. Cf Michel Villac (mars1993) Rapport pour le CNRS sur "L'enquête sur les 3000 familles TRA". 10 -CNIL : Commission Nationale Informatique et Libertés.

Geographical distribution of the marriages We observe an important changeableness in the geographical distribution of marriages among the departements (figures 2 and 3). For the periode 1803-1902 where the collect of DT is theoretically completed we optain in the Landes (40) only 72 marriages and for Paris (75) 2484 marriages. At the communal level we have found Tra marriages in 12358 communes. With : 5181 with only 1 marriage. 2086 with 2 marriages. 1148 with 3 marriages. 770 with 4 marriages. 556 with 5 marriages. wich means : 9742 communes with 1 to 5 marriages (concerning 78% of communes where Tra were found). 11071 communes with 1 to 10 marriages (concerning 89% of communes where Tra were found). and only 1467 with more than 10 marriages. 643 communes whith more than 20 marriages. I375 communes whith more than 30 marriages. 250 communes whith more than 40 marriages. 179 communes whith more than 50 marriages. And only 78 with more than 100 marriages. The main part of the marriages in each departements corresponds to the period 1803-1902 (figure 4). If we observe the repartion of communes with marriages TRA at the level of Administratives Regions (22 in France) we could observe the dispersion of the TRA. As exemples figure 5 and figure 6 present the results for Nord – Pas-de-Calais and the Burgundy. However we can nevertheless use these data to observe the evolution of the professions in France for period 1803-1986. With marriage certificates we shall measure the evolution in the time of the diverse professions. With the genealogies we shall observe the transmission and the distribution of the professions by generation in generation.

The HISCO codification of the activities

The activity names have been homogenised to correct some mistakes and to suppress some information of no interest in this study. For example the name of the town where the activity takes place or the name of the regiment for a military have been eliminated from the occupations name. As much as possible all the activities have been coded with the HISCO code. The temporal evolution of missing declaration for men and women where in figures7, 8 and 9. We have 16402 different activity titles for 78110 marriage certificates corresponding to 311245 persons, among which 12705 corresponding to 173049 men and 3694 corresponding to 138196 women. However, there are another 1634 activities which were not able to be coded in HISCO ( 4700 persons). The 500 most frequent names correspond to more than 87 percent of the population and the 1000 most frequent 91 percent. Nevertheless, some activities are observed under a great number of similar names

with only some variations. For example "cultivateur" (farmer), which concerns more than 24 percent of the husbands from the 1803-1986 period, could also appeared in other forms like "cultivateur et maire" (farmer and mayor). This dispersion explains, in part, the important number of different activities found (more than 15000 original activity names for more than 78 000 marriage certificates). Nevertheless, an occupation appearing under different names, that relate only to marginal differences could end up out the set of the most frequent ones, despite the fact that, when summed up, all these related activities concern a fair number of people. In the first step of the analysis, we have grouped theses activities with the most frequent activity names. Tables 1 - 6 give by decades the distribution, for each of 6 persons appearing on the marriage certificate. in absolute number and in percentage for 10 main groups of occupations, unemployed, status and not declared occupations. These tables show the main evolutions observed in the occupations during XIXth and XXth centuries. The differences between men and women appear in the major groups: for the women, for instance the group -2 of the "unemployed" is majority especially from 1840, but until this date, we have no mention of profession for the most part of between them; the almost complete absence of the group 2 (Administrative and Managerial Workers), the late appearance of the group 0/1 (Professional, Technical and Related Workers, Teachers); we also note the importance much more marked with the group 5 (Service Workers) than for the men. For the group 7/8/9 (Production and Related Workers, Transport Equipement Operators and Labourers), the mothers are less numerous than the wives, showing an effect of age in the exercise of these activities. All over the period, the women are more numerous in this main group and in the services ( 5 ) that in the group 6 (agriculture), counts them lessening regularly. In the decade 192 appear new occupations ( 3 ): administrative and assimilated staff, this group is the most mattering from 1960; it is also the case for the mothers, but in a lesser extent. For men, the farmers are majority in the four first decades (48 to 42 %), their number decreases regularly and they are not more than half at the beginning of the XXth century, then 10 % in the 60s and 5 % twenty years later. At the same time, the number of workers and assimilated (7/8/9) increases regularly from 37 % to 52 % to decrease slightly then. The evolution is the same for the fathers, but not so important. The group 0/1 is multiplied by more than 10 of the first decade to the last one, it is less important at the father's. The group of the Sale Workers ( 4 ) evolves little and is for its maximum during the first 30 years of the XXth century. The numbers of Administrative and Managerial Workers (2 ) are multiplied by 20, but this is after the World War II that it accelerates. The corpus of marriage certificates seems to be a good sample to describe the evolution of the French society during the two centuries. If we study the results obtained from 1851, during the censuses, by Marchand and Thélot, we notice it is difficult to compare because classifications are different. So, although the numbers of the persons working in the agriculture are nearby for the men, the disparity is very important for the women. It certainly results from the technique of collection used in the censuses: we attributed to the wife the profession of her husband, while in the marriage, a farmer’s daughter did not declare herself farmer. It is confirmed by the improbable proportion of "manageress of the industry and the business"!11 On the other hand, the number of workers is superior in the TRA dataset to that of the censuses except in the last three decades.

11 In 1851 forAdministrative and Managerial Workers 16,6 for men and 19,1 for women in 1866 forAdministrative and Managerial Workers 16,7 for men and 18,9 for women.

A measure of the endogamy

With marriage certificates, we have, in the same time, occupations of both spouses, and their parents. Obviously, these are not observed at the same stage of their life cycle. However, the comparison of the main groups of activities, according to HISCO, allows an approach of the professional mobility. To illustrate it, we compared, by period of approximately 50 years, the groups of the occupations of the sons with those of their fathers. The marriages were obviously retained only where the information concerning these two persons are known. The tables are presented in numbers and in percentages: with a distribution in 10 main groups, tables of 100 compartments are necessary to analyze and numbers can be relatively weak in certain cases. Then it's necessary to clarify the numbers involved in the precision of the results. This distribution allows to read tables in two directions: from the origin = in which group is the father of a husband of such group (what also indicate the on-line calculated percentages), and from the destination = in which group is located the son of a father of such group. The diagonal represents the professional endogamy. For the first period (Table7) for instance, we can notice that for 4865 fathers of the main group 6 (agriculture), there are only 3840 sons belonging to the same group anymore, but for 100 sons farmers, 91,8 % have themselves a father farmer. For 2nd and 3rd periods (Table 8 and 9), this proportion is not more than of 66 and 63 % but raises in the 2nd half of the XXth century: 844 farmers (on 7978) are 86 % sons of farmers! In the 1st half of the XIXth century, it is obviously the group 6 which is majority, both at the sons and at the fathers; but the sons meet themselves so also in the group 7/8/9; for the 2nd period, if the sons remain farmers, the fathers are mainly workers or not agricultural workers. This tendency is confirmed in the XXth (Table 10), but the distance racks itself strongly after 1950: there is no more than 10 % of farmers and 50 % of workers at the sons and respectively 22 % and 49 % of the fathers.

Using a genealogical approach The occupations mentioned in marriage certificates will be useful to describe the evolution during the two centuries and also to make a comparison between the sons and the fathers, measuring the endogamy. The 3000 families study isn't only a collection of acts of registry office; from these, downward genealogies were established. This gigantic work is in progress. At present, we work on 99 patronymics TRA (on 290) or more than 286000 persons : the genealogies of 43 of them can be considered as finished, that is to say we used all the documents in our ownership and makes all the possible demands of supplementary acts in concerned city halls (some of them have not answered yet!). It represents 113854 persons, for whom we noted the various occupations and residences with the dates in which we met them (on the occasion of marriages, births or death). Then, we have, for each generation, for an individual (and his / her spouse(s) when he (she) is married that his (her) occupations which we can compare to those of his(her) father (mother), of his (her) brothers (sisters), of his(her) uncles (aunts).... For example (Table 11), we've selected a couple, married in 1810, and followed his descendants. In this table with 6 columns, we have in the first the number of the generation: 0 for the origin-couple ; in the 2nd the sex of the individual, in the 3rd its number such as it is calculated in the downward numbering 12;

in 1876 forAdministrative and Managerial Workers 14,1 for men and 15,7 for women. 12 The ancestor is N°1 - The children are tracked down according to the born rank by letters: A for the first one, B for the second and so on. With the possibility of 26 letters. The children take the number of their ancestor to whom is added a letter following the born rank. So the children of A are AA, AB, AC … The number of letters indicates the number of generations, here 2. - The spouses have the number of her husband (wife) followed by a figure giving the rank of the marriage: C has for spouse C1.

in 4th his profession (in red for the TRA descendant, in blue for his(her) spouse, 5th column the profession in English, 6th column the HISCO code. Then, we notice here, that this weaver (group 7) has a son who is weaver and another one farmer (group 6), 2 domestic daughters (group 5), one grandson weaver and another one carpenter (group 9); in the 3rd generation we find two farmers (gr. 6) and a painter (gr. 9), the women marry a farmer (gr. 6) and a bricklayer (gr. 9); in the 4th generation an electrician (gr. 8) and a painter ( gr.9 ) and the unemployed women (-2) marry a farmer ( gr.6 ) and a mechanic ( gr.8 ); In the 5th generation 2 women who are other teacher (gr. 1) marry the first one a foreman (gr. 2) and the other one a student, an electrician ( gr.8 ) marries a saleswoman (gr. 4), an electronic ( gr.8 ) marries a writer (gr. 1) then a stenographer (gr. 3), a carpenter (gr. 9), a geometer ( gr.0 ) marries a nurse ( gr.0 ) and an unemployed woman ( 2 ) marries a commercial (gr. 4); in the 6th generation, it is about children still having no profession. Then we can summarize : Generations Groups of descendants Groups of spouses 0 7 1 -2, 6, 7 5 2 5, 7, 9 -2, 6, 9 3 -2, 6, 9 5, 6, 9 4 -2, 8, 9 4, 6, 7, 8 5 -2, 0, 1, 2, 8, 9 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 Then we see that in this genealogy, the weaver ancestor had a son and a grand-son weavers. The occupations diversify then, not belonging any more to the even larger group. In the generation 5, we notice that some of them are a part of groups 0, 1 and 2. This is how we can describe and analyze the evolution of the occupations within the genealogies.

The futur : using others descriptive variables Other descriptive variables can be added: rank of the marriage, the geographical localization (departments, type of municipality [prefecture, administrative centre of district, administrative centre of canton, rural country; or according to the number of inhabitants in 1901]). Then, geographical mobility mesuring the distances between birth, marriages and death and social mobility could be used.

- The natural children are considered as descended from a marriage of rank 0. - The sex of the persons is indicated by the written form of the letter which gives its born rank, a capital letter for the boys and a small letter for the girls. - In a family genealogy, every downward branch arises from an ancestor. By making precede the number of descent of the number of this ancestor followed by a hyphen (to separate well ascending and downward numbering) it is then possible to differentiate the diverse families.
