The purpose of this study is to apply methods developed by UN experts for countries with incomplete and unreliable demographic statistics to estimate mortality and fertility indicators for Russia in the 19th century.
Reliable and accessible data characterizing the age composition of the population and age-related mortality at the end of the 19th century and the dynamics of births and deaths during it relate to the European part of the Russian Federation within the borders of 1926. It was this territory that became the object of research.
Life expectancy in the territory under consideration in the middle of the 19th century was in the range of 26–28 years, the total fertility rate was 6.3, and the average number of live children per woman did not exceed 3.
