Abstract
With each individual in a branching population associate a random function of the age. Count the population by the values of these functions. Different choices yield different processes. In the supercritical case a unified treatment of the asymptotics is possible for a wide class, including for example the number of individuals having some random age dependent property or integrals of branching processes. As an application, the demographic concept of average age at childbearing is given a rigorous interpretation.
