Abstract EN:

Using data from family reconstitution of french immigrants living in tandil (argentine) between 1850 et 1914, we have studied the demographic behaviour (fertility, legitimacy, nuptiality, chain migrations and spatial mobility) and the social features (intermarriages, saratification and social mobility) of the french group. The existence of "differential models" of demographic behaviours, the effects of chain migrations and kinship structure in the process of immigrant assimilation and the utility of family reconstitution and nominative methods (specially genealogies) are the most important aspects of the study.

Abstract FR:

A partir des donnees tirees d'une reconstitution des familles etablies a tandil (argentine) entre 1850 et 1914, on a etudie les comportements demographiques (fecondite, legitimite, nuptialite, chaines migratoires et mobilite spatiale) et les caracteristiques sociales (integration matrimoniale, stratification et mobilite) du groupe migratoire francais. L'existence de "modeles differentiels" dans les comportements demographiques; les effets du flux migratoire (chaines migratoires et structures de parente) sur le processus d'integration des migrants et l'utilite de la reconstitution des familles et des methodes nominatives (notamment, les genealogies) constituent les aspects les plus importants de l'etude.
