Note: These should not necessarily agree with the number of cards for each confinement, as a family would have more than one card for a particular confinement if the confinement resulted in multiple births.
Discrepancy in Marital Status
The following tabulation shows a discrepancy between two variables on the family card: the prior marital status of each partner versus a variable indicating whether the earlier marriage(s) produced any children. There are a number of cases where the code for OTHMAR is inconsistent with MSTAT; the meaning of the codes for OTHMAR is not particularly clear.
Crosstabulation: MSTAT (Marital status at marriage)
