Denmark Census, 1916 Digital Folder Number List

This table describes of the content of each of the digital folders in the collection Denmark Census, 1916. The collection can be accessed at. More complete information on this collection and instructions on how to use it can be found in Denmark Census, 1916 (FamilySearch Historical Records).

The sequence of the DGS numbers does not match the arrangement of the records as microfilmed by the National Archives of Denmark. The number in the column labeled Roll indicates the sequential roll number of the microfilm.

The census was divided into three sections when it was microfilmed
 * 1) Cities other than Copenhagen
 * 2) The rural areas - sorted alphabetically by county (amt), district (herred), and parish (sogn)
 * 3) Copenhagen city - sorted alphabetically by street number

The records for Copenhagen city were filmed in 1995 and the remaining records filmed in 2001. This explains the non-consecutive order of the roll numbers on this project.

Please note that the entries in the "First Street" and "Parish" columns indicate the first item found on that film/folder according to the title board. The first images for a county, district, or parish may be on the previous film/folder. For example, if you are looking for records of Fårevejle parish, Ods district, in Holbæk county you would need to look at DGS 103920308, which is roll number 135.
