Carl August Olsson Sandström, his wife Christina Charlotta Blomberg and 10 out of their 13 children.

This is the household examination record (Husförhörslängd) for Huddinge Parish 1880-1885. Carl August and Christina Charlotta got in total 13 children. 10 of them are mentioned here. The 3 others died before the age of 3, the latest one in 1880. Carl August worked at the railroad as a banvakt in Swedish which would be a signalman in English.

A Household Examination Record (or Husförhörslängd) is a church book containing information about all the people who lived in a specific parish. Every parish was subject to the legal requirement of maintaining a household exam beginning in 1686. It's believed that many parishes discarded the earliest household exam records when the content no longer seemed relevant. This changed when the government established the Tabellverket in 1756 to gather demographic statistics.[1] The creation of the Tabellverket and the regulation to assist with the Mantals tax in 1812 re-inforced the need to preserve household examinations. The purpose of the Household Examination Records (also known as Clerical Surveys) was to help the Lutheran State Church in its responsibility to keep track of the people. It also served as an opportunity to teach church doctrine, reinforce disciplinary authority, and promote a healthy society. The Household Examination Records are a key source in Swedish genealogical research.
