According to the data from Shumon-ninbetsu-cho (1663-1870 A.D.) and other records, the author found out the following conclusions:1. In the former, middle and the first half of the later pariod (from the latter half of 17C. to the end of 18c.) the increase and decrease of population and the number of families had run parallel to that of the crop from paddy field. It indicates that the economic life of villagers had depended solely on the income from their cultivated land.2. However, in latter half of the later perod (the first half of 19C.) population and the number of families both had gradually increased, and the difference between the upper and the lower class in their patterns of family component had been diminished. It is due to the fhe fact that additional income favored the people in lower class, such as servants, inn-maids, porters etc., by earning side-live in the inn-town. Because, during this period this comunity had become a local center of commerce and handicraft deside of an inn-town on the Highway.3. This is a case where a village happened to lie along a highway, and in other villages being aside from highways the said trend appears far later.Note (1) Shumon-ninbetsu-cho: The book in which religion of each individual or of family and territorial property owned have been registerred.
