I have a graph of the death rate of certain cohorts (males born in 1840, females born in 1900's, etc) On the graph there is a sharp increase in the number of deaths among people age 0-10 that occured in 1840. Can any historical event that could have caused this increase. 2) ALSO for those born in 1900, there death rate sharply increased between the ages of 60-80. So this occured in 1960-1980-any historical event that could have wiped out middle-age individuals.3) ALSO FInally for those born in 1800, death rate sharply increased around age 50-70 so this would be between 1850-1870 (any events that culd have occured)??? Please help
