Added a resource which lists the names of all 24,000+ small populated places in Sweden in proximity to each other. The order of the listing mimics census takers routes. You might move it to another page, but I thought it really works with gazetteers. Incredible resource from a math study. Crazy.

Some of the main points in the 1906 spelling reform to keep in mind in searching for a place name are: | This gazetteer is excellent for showing the spellings of Swedish place names prior to the spelling reform which took place in 1906.
