In this second part of the article (the first part was published in the previous issue of the journal) the author’s attention is focused on the analysis of archival historical documentary sources of parish origin: metric books. The task is to recreate a picture of the parish inhabitants’ life expectancy through such parameters as birth rate and mortality characteristics. Two questions are under consideration: what the main death causes were and what the general spectrum of diseases during the two comparatively searched periods of parish community demographical development was.
