Household Records

[Georgina Smith]

How does a person find household records in this Parish or any other place in Stockholm?

Depends on the time. If you use ArkivDigital or Riksarkivet, their volume list tell you what is available, but much of the information in Stockholm are found at Rotemansarkivet, https://sok.stadsarkivet.stockholm.se/Rotemannen2012/Search.aspx to their search page. Needs some training but very useful when you have learned.

Thanks for getting back to me Leif. I have tried the link you have given and some people in Kungsholm. I am not sure what is on the record I bring up should help me to find in Hfl.
I use Svar because it is free. I do have enough money for ArkivDigital. So I put Kungsholm as Parish and Stockholm län. The highest year is 1860 for Hfl. That is is not high enough for some of my people.

What are you looking for? What is the link to Kungsholmen, source? And you will never find any Hfl i Stockholm after some year (maybe 1870?) as none were made. Instead the Roteman made a register of all people living in the parish, and it is that information you find electronically and free on Rotemannen. But I need a real case to help you further.

Thanks for helping me to understand the Hfl situation in Stockholm. The first couple did not move into Stockholm until 1879. So now that were no Hfl I will just be okay with what I find on Rotemannen. I sure do thank you for the link. This is first time I searched in Stockholm and I have been so used to finding Hfl.
