Interviewer instructions
<span class="em">f</span>. The enumeration form is divided into 14 columns with the following content:</p>
<p><svar a="all" v="SE90A437 SE90A438 SE90A441">That in column 4 it should for foreign citizens, living in the parish, be recorded as accurately as possible to which foreign power the person is subject. Recording names such as "Germany", "The German Empire" or "Austria" is not sufficient, instead a state should be recorded, for example Prussia, Saxony, Saxony-Altenburg, Hamburg, Hungary etcetera. It should be observed that if a note about nationality is missing it is assumed that the person is a Swedish citizen. A note should however be made if a person has become a Swedish citizen but has a birth place which can lead to believe that the person has a foreign nationality.<br /></svar>
