Widowhood risk rises for women in 1929 United States
Statisticians from the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company report that women face a higher risk of widowhood in 1929 due to mortality improvements favoring women. The article contrasts widow and widower durations, noting longer expected widowhood for wives when husbands die first and shorter durations when wives die first, with remarriage affecting longevity estimates. It also mentions an upcoming Liberty community ice cream supper to support the church.
