Definición

  • William Farr (1807–1883) had a major impact on the emergence of British social statistics, epidemiology, and demography in the mid-19th century and is considered to be a founder of medical statistics. Born in Shropshire, England, in 1807 to poor parents, Farr was effectively adopted by a local squire, Joseph Pryce, after his family moved to Dorrington.
