]]> The Ensenada Cadastre offers a wealth of information for the analysis of the population and the household in the rural populations of Castile in the mid-18th century. In the professional sphere of the La Mancha region of Ciudad Real during the 18th century, biological reasons led sons to remain in the parental home for longer periods, as access to marriage was later than for women. The latter often worked in the same trade as their fathers, which required a longer period of apprenticeship and was a great economic help for the families of small farmers, artisans or muleteers who were on the edge of subsistence and needed their children to live. The analysis of age by groups of activity shows that in agriculture and livestock farming the dominant population is young, as those under 35 years of age account for 48.6%, followed at a considerable distance by those between 35 and 55 years of age, with 39.8%. The case of crafts and trades is similar to the predominance of the young population (58.3% under 35), compared to 25% and 16% of the other two groups. Only the service sector breaks the distribution, where the majority group is made up of the 35-55 age group.

]]> The Cadastre of Ensenada offers a wealth of information for the analysis of the population and households of the rural populations of Castile in the mid-18th century. The study of Villalar de Calatrava was chosen from among the municipalities because its topographical and productive structure corresponds to that of the entire geographical region of Campo de Calatrava. The information contained in the Memoriales, which have been less used by researchers, is exclusive to the Intendencia de La Mancha. The total number of Memoriales presented in Villamayor de Calatrava (Ciudad Real) is 212 (210 secular and two ecclesiastical), with a total of 862 inhabitants; some deductions due to duplications, absences and other causes must be clarified. Therefore, the number of inhabitants amounts to 815. As in this one, in the Libro de lo personal there are different duplications, where the number of heads of household is 199 as opposed to 210 in the Memoriales.
