==Conscription Lists== | == Conscription Lists == | ||
Conscription lists names of those men called up for military service. Drafting of selected groups began earlier but as of January 1, 1874, all 21-year-old males were subject to military service. Conscription occurred each year in October. Initially, the term of service was 6 years active and 9 years reserve. The length of active duty was reduced to 5 years in 1876 and then varied between 3-5 years thereafter. Deferments were granted for only sons, sole breadwinners, etc. More than 50 percent of the draftees were not inducted. | |||
Generally these records contain the name of the draftee, birth date, religion, marital status, literacy; later lists include names of father and brothers, and the brother’s ages. They are challenging to use as lists are arranged chronologically by district. However, they serve as a census substitute for males. Records are held in the various state archives. They cover 15-40% of the total population between the years 1874-1920. | |||
