(National Archives) is the so called Kommittéarkiv for both earlier and<br />
modern times, for instance Äldre kommittéarkiv: 502, Kommissionen i<br />
Göteborg ang sillsalterier och trankokerier (salting houses and train-oil<br />
factories) and 503, Kommitterade "till beredande av ett bolag för<br />
sillfiskets idkande på djupet" (herring fishing in the deep seas).<br />
Figures on domestic consumption for earlier periods are almost<br />
always estimates. Demographic material can give information about the<br />
fishing population. For instance, the Swedish Tabellverket gives yearly<br />
data on individuals and occupations from c1750 for the parishes, for the<br />
counties and for the whole nation.<br />
From the older sources statistical data has been collected and<br />
published in printed form. Most valuable are the volumes <strong>of</strong> Historisk<br />
statistik för Sverige (Historical statistics for Sweden), Del 1. Befolkning<br />
1720-1967 (Population), Del 2. Väderlek, lantmäteri, jordbruk,<br />
skogsbruk, fiske t.o.m. 1955 (Climate, land surveying, agriculture,<br />
forestry, fisheries -1955, Del 3. Utrikeshandel 1732-1970 (Foreign<br />
trade 1732-1970) and Statistiska översiktstabeller (Statistical survey).<br />
Exclusively for Gothenburg statistics on trade and shipping is found in I.<br />
Lind, Göteborgs handel och sjöfart 1637-1920. Göteborgs<br />
jubiléumspublikationer X. Göteborg 1923.<br />
Primary statistical material is found in several series: for the<br />
nineteenth century Commerce collegii underdåniga berättelse om<br />
Sveriges utrikes handel och sjöfart 1828-1857 (Foreign trade and<br />
shipping), Bidrag till Sveriges <strong>of</strong>ficiella statistik: A. Befolkning<br />
(Population), E. Inrikes sjöfart och handel 1858-1910 (Domestic trade<br />
and shipping), F. Utrikes handel och sjöfart 1858-1910 (Foreign trade<br />
and shipping).<br />
For the twentieth century statistical material is collected in Sveriges<br />
<strong>of</strong>ficiella statistik SOS (Official statistics <strong>of</strong> Sweden): Befolkning<br />
(Population), Handel 1911- (Foreign trade), Fiske 1914-1969<br />
(<strong>Fisheries</strong>), Fiskestatistisk årsbok 1971- 1982 (Yearbook <strong>of</strong> Fishery<br />
Statistics), after that on fisheries Statistiska meddelanden , J Jordbruk,<br />
skogsbruk och fiske (Statistical Reports, J Agriculture, Forestry and<br />
Fishery).<br />
Information on the fisheries can also be extracted from associations<br />
and unions, for instance Göteborg och Bohusläns havsfiskeförening<br />
(published yearbooks from 1900) and Sveriges Fiskares Riksförbund. In<br />
this context yet another book can be mentioned, I. Gerhard,<br />
