Info about the database FOLKNET
The database FOLKNET contains information about the entire population in Swedish parishes, towns, and existing municipalities, which was obtained every ten years during the period 1810-1990.
This data was originally collected from Statistics Sweden by the enthusiast Christian Swärd, and some additional information was also taken in from Tabellverket. He left all collected statistics to the Demographic Data Base to digitize.
