Summary/Abstract: The study presents a comprehensive picture of fertility behaviour of Calvinist and Unitarian families of Kide, from the middle of the 19th century until the middle of the 20th century. The beginning of the investigation period has low fertility rates. An interesting change in fertility behaviour can be observed in this period: instead of providing the interval between marriage and the first childbirth, and especially between the births, the postponement of the desired number of children is derived from the age-specific fertility curves. This is the nuclear family milieu, where maternal experience carries a new female subjectivity.
