The purpose of this study is to investigate the Uygur people's family and household system and their life-course in gender perspectives, who live in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous region in the northwest of China. The interview research was conducted in Yining-city in Xinjian, August 2002. The information was gleaned from 5 female interviewees who were 47～57 years old. The main results are follows:1) They have large households and their fertility rate is relatively high. The average number of household members is 7.8, and the average number of children per woman is 7.6.2) Almost all of them got married early and by romantic-love. On the other hand, the divorce rate is high, as well as the rate of re-marriage. In Uygur society divorce is not an important deviation from family norms.3) They have a very small marriage area, and moreover they have intimate and supportive relationships and networks especially between mothers and married daughters.4) The institution of ultimogeniture remains there, but it has been becoming weaker. So that there is a remarkable difference between their system and the stem family system that typically appearsin East-Asia. However, at the same time, nobody hoped to live with their daughters during their elderly age.
