As I have found it, in 1866 the Death Index volumes changed from handwritten entries on parchment to printed entries - and at the same time the ages commenced to be noted.
Apart from 4 ‘missing’ quarterly volumes of B/M/D indexes (equivalent to one year), in the period 1866 to 1926 for all England and Wales the MABBS deaths recorded were
Ages Male Female
0 14 18
1-9 7 20
10-19 1 0
20-29 4 3
30-39 3 8
40-49 5 5
50-59 10 5
60-69 5 10
70-79 7 14
80-89 6 6
all of which suggests to me that the MABBS gene pool tends towards longevity provided the birth trauma is survived.
I hope this is a welcome interpretation perhaps of some minor relief !
