Fewer Old Maids Now Than in 1940 Census Report Finds
Washington February report from the census bureau notes romance is popular with fewer unmarried men than in 1940 while more women aged 14 to 65 have husbands. Between 1945 and 1949 marriages rose, moving nearly 2,000,000 women from single to married life. In 1949 single women aged 4 to 65 numbered 11,174,000, down from 13,935,000 in 1940, as the population grew by about 5,000,000. The study suggests the postwar marriage surge and aging cohorts will influence future pairing patterns. A separate county court note says Charles A. Sluder and John N. Burgardt were fined $10 plus costs for running a stop sign.
