Summary

The mass migrations that took place as from the late nineteenth century which brought about the urbanisation of the Bilbao Estuary were characterized by a significant complexity of typologies, highlighting the hegemony of whole-family moves. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the factors that influence the decision to migrate with the family as well as the characteristics of families that move, using a classical source-the patterns followed by people-and a new methodology-the "nominative follow-ups".
