"People married between 19 and 23 usually, and had huge parties to celebrate their marriage. After a year of marriage the couple usually started having children. It wasn't unusual for a couple to have seven or eight children. When some children were born, it wasn't until the child was a few months old before the parents would name it. Risk of death was great during the child's fragile first months so the parents would try hard not to get too attached."More papers on "The Reshaping of Everyday Life":
