The Scandinavian Element in the United States

APPENDIX I
Statistical Tables

TABLE I

STATISTICS OF IMMIGRANTS FROM DENMARK, NORWAY AND SWEDEN.

The number of alien passengers and immigrants from the Scandinavian countries arriving in the United States, 1820-1913, together with the total number of alien arrivals according to the statistics of the United States, and, where available, of the Scandinavian kingdoms. The figures from 1820-1840 are at best a safe minimum. The earlier figures reported by the Scandinavian kingdoms, given in round numbers, are probably estimates based upon partial data. See United States Reports of the Bureau of Commerce and Navigation, Annual Statistical Abstracts and the report of the Dillingham Commission (1911); Sundbärg, Bidrag til Utvandringsfrägen frän Befolkningsstatistisk Synpunkt; Nelson, Scandinavians in the United States, I. 253-264c; Bulletin de l’Institute Internationale de Statistique, III, ii, 125-127; Statesman’s Year-Books, 1906-14.
