I would like to find data on the literacy rate, life expectancy and
birth mortality rate from 1900 to the present, by year for the US.
Cls3277,
Please take a look at the following graphs.
Infant mortality rate by year 1915-1995

Lifespan and adult illiteracy rate

Please let me know if this information would suit your purpose?
Thank you,
Bobbie7
Hello again CLS3277,
All I've found in table format is Life expectancy.
1900-1999
Table 12. Estimated life expectancy at birth in years, by race and
sex: Death-registration States, 1900?28, and United States, 1929?99
http://www.lifeexpectancy.com/le_birth.pdf
AND
See page 6 for selected years
Table 1. U.S. Life Expectancy at Birth, by Sex, in Selected Years
(in years)

If you are interested in the partial information that I was able to
locate, you could lower the price of your question accordingly.
(You can change the price by going to "My Account,"
selecting "My Unanswered Questions", clicking on the question, and
then clicking on "Change Question Parameters" to modify the pricing.)
Afterwards, you can post another question, if you wish, to see whether
someone can find the remaining data in table form.
Sincerely,
Bobbie7
Please help with my other questions outstanding!
I also found:
Percent Illiterate in the Population by Race and Nativity: 1870 to 1969

Excel file
http://levine.sscnet.ucla.edu/papers/_time_series.xls
And here
Percent Illiterate in the Population by Race and Nativity: 1870 to 1959
Page 2
http://www.census.gov/population/socdemo/education/p20-099/p20-99.pdf
Is this satisfactory?
This is good, as this is the data I want, but I need the data table
supporting the chart. If you could find that data or recreate the
data in Excel, and find the data through to 2000, I would be happy to
kick in an extra $10.00 tip.
Thanks

Please post as an answer and I will give you credit. Not quite
perfect, but I can definitely use some of the charts.
Thanks
cls3277,
I'll see what I can find and will get back to you as soon as posible.
