E. Hofsten and H. Lundstrom, Swedish Population History: Main Trends from 1750-1950 (Stockholm: National Central Bureau of Statistics, 1976), pp. 152-55. During the period 1749-1774, no clear distinction was made between births and baptisms or between burials and deaths. Some errors were probably introduced in conjunction with the registration of births. Information on deaths and in particular age at death was more accurate. Later studies, however, indicate that the differences were small and that for all intents and purposes the figures for this period represent births and deaths.

No large religious dissenter groups existed, making coverage all but complete. Historians Nilsson and Gaunt suggest that the records were made compulsory so that the state could better control the population and, in particular, keep track of presumptive recruits for military service. Lext, on the other hand, believes these records were used to maintain church discipline. See S.A. Nilsson, "Den svenska folkbökforingens begynnelse," (manuscript, Uppsala University, 1977); D.

The information in the paper was considered confidential and of national importance, and as a result the title of the paper did not include the name of the town of Uppsala but instead "U*****." Erik Brenzelius, a member of the Academy, convinced Elvius of the value of the Swedish church books for population studies and after Brenzelius's death Elvius took over responsibility within the academy for promoting interest in population statistics.

There were several nosological systems based on the criteria of symptoms; similar symptoms determined the classification of diseases. The more well known included those constructed by Carl von Linnaeus (1707-1778), François Boissier de Sauvages (1706-1767), and William Cullen (1710-1790).

Darelius, Socken-apothek och några huscurer, utgifne under Kungl Collegü medici öfverseende och besjörande (1760). Sometime during the beginning of the 1770s, Bäck began a handbook on the diagnosis of various diseases to help the clergy determine the correct cause of death. The handbook was never published.

A utilitarian approach to the problem was adopted by the authorities. They realized that the clergy lacked sufficient medical training, but with so few doctors in the country the clergy represented the only viable solution. Several suggestions were made to better utilize the clergy, and efforts were made to improve their medical skills, although progress was slow. For example, a dissertation entitled Enfaldiga tanker om nyttan och nödvändighet for en präst, at äga insikt i medicine (1762) by S. Lithovous emphasized the need for improved medical training of the clergy so that they could better diagnose causes of death. J. A. Darelius (n. 17) suggested using the bell ringer to perform simple medical tasks. In conjunction with a national smallpox vaccination campaign in the early nineteenth century, bell ringers were used as vaccinators. See M.C. Nelson and J. Rogers, ̈The right to die: anti-vaccination activity and the 1874 smallpox epidemic in Sweden,̈ Soc. Hist. Med., 1992, 5, 369-88.

Bertillon (1851-1922), head of the Statistical Bureau in Paris, presented in 1893 a classification system based general diseases and those associated with particular organs. In 1898 a number of countries adopted the Bertillon system and proposed that every ten years the system be revised. Nordenfeldt, (n. 24), p. 9.

After being appointed Secretary of the Statistical Commission in 1791, H. Nicander inventoried the commission's archives and found that several deanery and/or parish tables were missing. Nicander found that this was mainly due to a shortage of preprinted forms. New forms were distributed with a request to send in the missing tables. Most but not all were returned. See H. Nicander, Tabellvärkets tillstånd ifrån 1775 till 1795 (Stockholm, 1802), p. 1; Hofsten and Lundström, (n. 2) Swedish Population History, p. 154.

As there are no systematic studies of local registers, we do not know how common cause-of-death registration on the local level was during this period. Bengtsson found in a study of the parish of Västanfors in central Sweden that causes of death continued to be recorded in the death registers by the minister who was in service in 1830. After his death in 1841, the new minister followed the new instructions, which resulted in a large increase in the number of deaths recorded without an accompanying cause. Puranen in her study of tuberculosis found a similar pattern in a number of parishes. See Bengtsson, (n. 23), pp. 468-71; Puranen, (n. 16) Tuberkulos, pp. 64-72.

I have not taken into consideration changes that occurred in conjunction with a change in the parish minister. In Hållnäs the same minister was in service during the change in praxis in 1830, but unlike the parishes studied by Bengtsson and Puranen, no dramatic break occurred when a new minister took over (see n. 44). Causes were recorded on about the same scale. Not until the next change in 1863 do we find a sharp drop in the number of reported causes.

At the Demographic Database in Umeå the basic mortality tables for all of the parishes (approximately 2,500) between 1749 and 1859 are registered and will be soon available for research. It will then become possible to do systematic checks using a sample of parishes.
