INTRODUCTION
The Territory of the Danish Monarchy
The Kingdom of Denmark has in historical times from A.D. 950 comprised present Denmark as well as Slesvig to the Eider and to the east Scania, Halland and Blekinge. These last-mentioned East Danish provinces were in 1660 finally ceded to Sweden. Slesvig (also called South-Jutland) from c. 1100 became an entire or partial principality under the Danish King, but was ruled by an Earl or Duke. In 1460 the Danish King Christian I was elected Duke of Slesvig and Count (later Duke) of Holstein. The two duchies, to which the Duchy of Lauenburg was added in 1814 on the cession of Norway, were in 1864 conquered by Prussia and Austria and in 1867 incorporated in Prussia. After a plebiscite in 1920 the Danish-speaking North Slesvig was retroceded to Denmark. In 1381 Norway, to which the Faroes, Iceland and Greenland belonged, formed a personal union with Denmark, and in changing forms this connection was maintained until 1814, when Sweden and Norway were united; the Faroes, Greenland and Iceland, however, continuing to belong to Denmark. From 1919 Iceland formed a personal union with Denmark until final secession in 1944. Whereas the North Atlantic parts of the Danish monarchy were called dependencies, the monarchy also possessed colonies, all of which in the tropics. The colonies in India were from 1620 the district of Tranquebar (a fief under the Naik, later the Rajah of Tanjore), and in Bengal at first Dannemarksnagore at the Hooghly river 1698-1714 and Serampore (formerly Frederiksnagore) from 1755; the colonies on the Indian continent originally belonged to trading companies, at last to The Asiatic Company, but in 1777 they were taken over by the Crown; in 1845 they were sold. This sale did not include the Nicobars, but the right of sovereignty was relinquished in the 1860s. The Danish colonies on the coast of Guinea were in 1849 sold to England, the Danish West Indies (now The Virgin Islands), comprising St. Thomas, St. John and St. Croix, were in 1917 sold to the U.S.A. The non-Asiatic tropical colonies are of indirect importance only to this guide; but it is essential to users of the guide to fully realize, which territories the Danish monarchy at certain times comprised. Despite exchange of records in modern times there is still a large number of sources concerning relations between the foreign continents covered by the guide and the now separated parts of the Danish monarchy.
Danish relations with North Africa, Asia and Oceania Within historical times the viking raids in 858 to the Arabic Spain and Morocco, as well as the Scandinavian (especially Swedish) expeditions to the east through Russia to the regions around the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea; from the south Arab travellers came, among their number Al-Ghazal (died 860), who presumably visited a Danish island, as well as At-Tartushi who passed through Schleswig (formerly Hedeby). c. 960. From the early 11
Introduction Middle Ages pilgrimages start; the Danish King Erik Ejegod died in Cyprus in 1103 en route to Jerusalem; Queen Bodil reaching the Holy Land. Among Danish prelates Bishop Svend of Viborg and his brother Eskil died c. 1153 in the Holy Land, Bishop Svend Normand of Roskilde in 1088 on Rodhos (Rhodes); Archbishop Eskil of Lund visited Jerusalem in the 1160s. Temporal persons also went on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem; Jens Sunesen. knight, died here c. 1200; Lord High Constable Jens Ebbesen in 1232 at Ako (Acre). A Dano-Norwegian group of crusaders did not reach Jerusalem until after the armistice in 1192 (the account of the journey 'Profectio Danorum', presumably before 1202). King Valdemar surnamed Atterday visited Jerusalem in 1347, King Erik of Pomerania in the 1420s. There are several medieval Danish accounts (itineraries) of routes. Journeys to the Holy Land are made until the end of the Middle Ages (Holger Gregersen Ulfstand and Johan Oxe in 1518; Henrik Nielsen Rosenkrantz and Mogens Gyldenstierne in 1522), as well as after the Reformation, thus Jakob Ulfeldt's journey c. 1590 to Constantinople (now Istanbul), Greece, Syria and Egypt. From the 16th century the dreaded Algerians ('Turks') were prominent among the pirates, in 1627 abducting 300 persons from Iceland, as well as 30 women from the Faroes in 1629. They attacked merchantmen of all nations and captured these for North Africa, where the prisoners were sold as slaves, if they were not ransomed (a 'Slave Fund' with money raised for ransom was in 1715 established in Copenhagen). This disorder continued, until treaties with the North African states and the arrangement with the so-called Algerian sea passes from the mid-eighteenth century effected the freedom of the Mediterranean as well as the Atlantic south of Cabo de Finisterre. A consular service of appointed consuls with status as diplomats was established in the Barbary states (Tripoli, Tunis, Alger and Morocco) from c. 1750, from 1821 accredited the heads of these states as consuls-general. 1 8 0 0 - 3 7 this consular service was under a special Royal African Consular Direction. On several occasions the Dano-Norwegian Navy had squadrons in the Mediterranean and off the coast of Morocco in order to show power during conflicts with the Barbary states (an unsuccessful expedition to Alger in 1770) as well as on account of the wars between the powers of Europe. A chartered African Trading Company was in 1755 established for Morocco trade especially, being abolished in 1768; its archives have been lost. Levant trade caused the establishment of diplomatic relations with Turkey in 1756, here and in the neighbouring provinces subject to Turkey a system of honorary consuls and vice-consuls also evolved. In the latter half of the 17th century the Danish King corresponded with the Crimea Tatars. In the East Indies and later in China trade was - according to foreign examples - organized as a single trading company, the East India Company, established in 1616; from Tranquebar (held as a fief under the Naik of Tanjore) with Fort Dansborg it carried on trade with India as well as with Further India and Indonesia (Java (Banten)), later with Sumatra (Achin, now province of Sumatera Utara)). Its activities ceased in 1643, but the possession of Tranquebar was — despite attempts at sale — maintained, until a new East India Company was established in 1668. The India and as well as now China trade was in 1732 organized under the Asiatic Company, which also administered the settlements Tranquebar and Frederiksnagore (now Serampore). In 1777 their administration passed to the Danish State, and free trade with the Indian colonies was permitted. The Company was dissolved 1838-45, and in 1845 the Danish settlements on the Indian continent were 12
Introduction transferred to the British East India Company. The archives of the Asiatic Company, which are in a good state of preservation, have been transferred to the Danish National Archives together with those parts of the local archives which were sent home. State management of the settlements was after the takeover in 1777 carried out locally through The Royal Danish Government, in Copenhagen through the Board of Trade until 1816 and the Board of Customs and Trade 1816—48. The archives of the Government were also to a great extent sent home. After 1777 other chartered trading companies had certain interests in East India trade, thus The Royal Chartered West Indian Trading Company and The Royal Chartered Danish, Norwegian, Slesvig and Holstein United Trading and Canal Company. The Royal Chartered General Trading Company whaled and fished in the North Atlantic dependencies as well as carrying on trade and shipping in the Mediterranean; it also attended to the forwarding of presents to North African rulers. The Dano-Norwegian Navy seldom took part in expeditions to the East Indies with warships, more often, however, with naval officers; warships were on the other hand (see above) frequently sent to the Mediterranean, especially in the second half of the 18th century, when the Dano-Norwegian Navy was still of considerable size and strength. In the mid-nineteenth century relations with foreign countries in many ways changed, thus by the sale of the colonies in Africa and Asia, the dissolution of the Asiatic Company and administratively by the 1848-change of the 1660-board system into an administration organized in ministries led by popularly elected ministers. In the archives of the central administration a more or less radical dividing line of 1848 is thus often to be found, this is consequently also noticeable in the groupings of the guide. — Danish shipping in East Asian and South East Asian waters increased during the 1850s, especially to be noticed are ships registered in the Duchies of Slesvig (Äbenrä and Flensburg) and Holstein; an extension of Danish consular service in the Far East takes place from 1845 onward, whereas permanent embassies here belong to the 20th century, as Danish trade gradually manifested itself in these regions. The cession of the Duchies of Slesvig and Holstein to Prussia (and Austria) in 1864 meant a recession in Danish shipping, which was not overcome until much later. Whereas the archives of the chartered trading companies, to the extent in which they were preserved, have been transferred to the National Archives, keeping of archives is within own discretion of modern trade. As regards this guide, it has not been possible to examine and register trade archives in private ownership; several refusals on applications hereon were discouraging at the start of work at the guide. On the other hand the guide has in a high degree profited from the Danish National Business Archives, which have at Arhus collected archives of trade organizations and firms. The Danish Maritime Museum in Kronborg Castle, as well as the maritime museums atMarstal andatTroense also possess records relating to shipping. Both here and in the museums at Äbenrä and Sonderborg there are furthermore extensive collections of pictorial material (paintings of ships, waterfronts, etc.). In the State archives work abroad by the trades and industries is increasingly reflected (Ministry· of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Commerce with institutions placed under it, Statistics of Denmark, etc.). When missionary work, begun at Tranquebar in 1706, was in this place in 1845 entrusted to the Lutheran Missionary Society in Leipzig, Denmark has through the Danish 13
Introduction Missionary Society, founded in 1821, been working to further Christian missions. Originally this society supported other missionary societies, from 1863, however, getting its own mission field in Southern India, from the 1890s in China too, and from the 1930s in East Jeypore. In more recent times older societies as Danish Church Mission in Arabia, Danish Mission to the Orient and the Pathan Mission were affiliated. The Danish Santal Mission is a missionary society, from the 1860s in collaboration with Norwegian, Swedish and North American Santal Missions, working among Santals, Boros and Bengali in North Eastern India and Bangla Desh. The Indo-Danish Mission of Porto Novo, the Society for the Support of the Church in Pakistan, Women Missionary Workers and the Danish Israel Missions are on a smaller scale. The said societies are almost without exception belonging to the established church and have to a great extent transferred their older records to the National Archives for keeping, just as several missionaries did with their private archives. Circles not belonging to the established church also missionize; it has been difficult to get information and records as regards those. Connected with the said archives of missions are the archives of the Danish Missionary Council and the Nordic Missionary Council, from which older records are transferred to the National Archives. From other church and Christian institutions with international activities the National Archives often also receives records of no current use. The same holds good of international organizations such as the Red Cross. Other international relief organizations have as yet not determined on this. The recent emigrations and immigrations, partly in the form of refugees, have resulted in a great many records in both State offices as well as in private organizations, which have in several places been mentioned in the guide. It has, however, often been difficult to give anything like exact information on these quite recent records. The same applies to the State relief work in the developing countries, which is undertaken by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs through DANIDA (Danish International Development Agency). Danish exploration in North Africa, Asia and Oceania has been carried on during more than 200 years, for instance by travels of Norden in Egypt and of C. Niebuhr in Arabia, Rasmus Rask's travel to India, etc.; in recent times Danish scholars have excavated in the Near East; languages, music, etc. were tape-recorded. Manuscripts, notes, letters and tapes respecting this are especially to be found in the collections of the Royal Library, the National Archives, the National Museum and various university institutes. Kindred collections of tapes, gramophone records and especially Danish produced films are to be found in Danmarks Radio, the Danish Government Film Office, the Film Museum and the like, having been for enlightenment and entertainment. It has been impossible to examine corresponding film material of the private film companies. Aids for scholarly work are extensive collections of atlases, maps and charts kept in The Private Library of Her Majesty the Queen, The Department of Maps and Prints of the Royal Library and in The Nautical Section of the Directorate of Inland Waters. Private correspondence has occasionally been mentioned above, such letters are according to their nature not under obligation of transfer. In many cases they will, however, be in the keeping of public collections. The National Archives thus, besides the letters of the Royal House, receives a large number of archives of private persons as gifts or commodata, especially archives left by persons having been of importance in political and social life, whereas collection of letters from writers and men of learning are normally to be sought in the Royal Library. It is, however, impossible to make a well-defined distinc14
Introduction tion; persona] wishes may also make themselves felt, when own private papers or those of relations are to be transferred. Finally is to be added that The Danish National Business Archives at Arhus collects archives from persons connected with trade. The State & University Library at Arhus, just as several other libraries, possesses collections of letters and MSS. The Provincial Archives also have collections of private archives; especially the Provincial Archives at Äbenrä have - owing to its particular locality - important groups of such archives.
General observations Above was attempted to outline some principal sources for the history of North Africa, Asia and Oceania; weight being attached to the fact that the series of guides published by the International Council on Archives, according to the plan envisages the inclusion of not alone manuscript sources but also for instance sources as films, and tape records, which are perhaps more than the greater part of the Danish manuscript material comprehensible for e.g. the population of developing countries. The Danish part of the guide has to a very small extent only been based on reports obtained from institutions, persons, etc., because it has from the very first been difficult to get replies to such inquiries; when answers were in a few cases returned, they were usually unsatisfactory. It was therefore almost invariably necessary for the editor to pay visits to many different places. This permitted an explanation of the purpose of the guide during a talk, after which access to lists, indexes, etc. was almost everywhere free. It was often asserted that the institutions could not, owing to their burden of labour, undertake to work out suitable surveys. In many respects it may have been an advantage that the editor has himself got the opportunity to make or elaborate surveys, which have then been included in the Danish part of the guide; but on the other hand the editor has of course not been able to get the desirable intimate knowledge of a possible comprehensible, more or less well-ordered archival material during the often strictly limited space of time which could be afforded for each separate institution; mistakes have been inevitable, and as regards certain more recent institutions and organizations it has in too many cases been only possible to indicate some lines as to what can be found from the nature of the archives. It has, however, been considered worth-while to draw attention to the existence of these archives, especially on the ground that it will presumably be a long time until a revised edition of this part of the guide is to be published. The general time limit of access is 50 years, in the case of some (especially personal) files the rules are even stricter, but bona fide researchers may often get access on more easy terms, and as there is reason to hope that the guide will moreover, errors and omissions excepted, prove to be of use for many years, the particulars of the guide have consequently been brought down to the years after 1945. It has been a great advantage that not only the archives of Government offices proper but also archives of private institutions and organizations are to such a great extent transferred to the State archives; the editor could here often take advantage of existing goodwill towards the National Archives. It is, however, absolutely certain that collecting might have been pursued further, yet lack of time hindered this. The translation into English, which has chiefly been done by Mr. Mogens Moller, M.A., permanent translator of the National Archives, has been difficult. For centuries Danish 15
Introduction Civil Service has to a much higher degree been affected by German tradition than by English; several archival terms have thus been almost untranslatable. It therefore stood in good stead that Mr. Peter Walne, County Archivist, Hertford, kindly undertook to go through large parts of the manuscript in the translation into English; his recommendations both as regards English usuage and layout have to a very great extent been followed. Nevertheless the Danish editor is solely responsible for linguistic errors and imperfections in the translation, just as regards the layout, even if he with pleasure acknowledges that Mr. Walne has been an excellent teacher and begs him to accept best thanks. The guides of the series published until now have been diligently consulted, especially the Belgian guide on North Africa, Asia and Oceania has at several points been useful. The working out of the Danish part of the guide was originally assigned to the late Mr. Aage Rasch, chief archivist, who was unfortunately killed in an air crash in 1972; at his death preparatory work had been made, primarily a complete translation by Mogens Moller of the inventory of the East India Company, Asiatic Company, and The Royal East Indian Government, Tranquebar (Vejledende Arkivregistraturer XIV), edited by Rasch; this translation is the basis of the sections in question. Other preliminary sections have on the other hand been completely revised, but existing preliminary work has been used for the bibliography. The editor of the Danish part of the guide is C. Rise Hansen, archivist, who is very grateful to the late Dr. Johan Hvidtfeldt, Director of the National Archives, because he permitted the protracted elaboration to form part of the daily work of the Danish National Archives. Thanks also to those who have aided by translating and typing at various stages and to those who have kindly received and helped the editor in his visits to the institutions and organizations in question.

Introduction DANISH NATIONAL ARCHIVES -
RIGSARKIVET
Rigsdagsgärden 9, DK-1218, Copenhagen K. Telephone: 01-12 38 78 Hours of the reading room of the First Department: Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and from 1 May to 30 September, Saturday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. only (closed 15 June 15 August); the reading room of the Third Department (Army Archives): Monday to Friday only 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Closed Sundays and public holidays, as well as Easter Eve, 5 June (Constitution Day), 24 December and 31 December. The Reading Room is accessible to all Danish and foreign visitors. Photographic Service: Provision of microfilm, enlargements from them, photographs in larger sizes and xerocopies. Smaller orders of photocopies can be executed immediately. Introductory remarks In the Middle Ages, the archives of the Danish kings were kept in the royal castles, especially at Vordingborg and Kaiundborg; c. 1582, the most important of these archives were gathered in Copenhagen Castle; from 1663, the archives of the State and the King made up special archives, until 1889 called the Royal Archives ('Gehejmearkivet'), from then part of the National Archives ('Rigsarkivet')· The civil ministries until 1861 had their own archives, which were united in that year in the Archives of the Kingdom ('Kongerigets Arkiv'), becoming in 1889, however, part of the newly established National Archives. The army had special archives, from 1921 called the Army Archives ('Haerens Arkiv'), the archives of the air force were gradually included. In 1971, the Army Archives became the Third Department of the National Archives. The Royal Archives were in 1720 transferred to the then new-built building of the Royal Archives. About 1910, the National Archives took over the former buildings of the Royal Library. The National Archives house the Archives of the Royal House, keeping the archives of the Danish kings until 1947, together with archives of the central administration, ministries, directorates, central institutions such as the Supreme Court and the Royal Theatre, and of more than 5000 archives of private persons, especially statesmen and politicians, government officials and intellectual leaders. A considerable number of private institutions have also transferred their archives to the National Archives. The number of private archives is steadily increasing. Records are not only taken to mean archival documents on parchment or paper, but also maps, drawings, films, etc. The Collection of Seals comprises both original seals and casts of seals. The Collection of Maps and Drawings relates not only to the present Kingdom of Denmark, but also to the former Duchies of Slesvig and Holstein as well as to the Danish colonies. The Film Collection comprises security films of material in the National Archives and the Provincial Archives as well as of material in Danish country houses and the like; it also includes films of records in foreign archives and libraries to illustrate Danish history; this 47
National Archives collection, known as Danica-films, is steadily increasing; inventories published or in preparation. For the use of the films, there are special microfilm reading rooms. There is also an allied Collection of Photographs, which is now at least partially being worked into the collections of private archives and the Collection of Manuscripts, the latter often also comprises preparatory studies for treatises or copies of unpublished works. The Collection of Tape Recordings and Magnetic Tapes has come into being by transfers from the administration of some electronic data processing tapes, regarded as archival documents and arranged according to provenance. In addition to these there are some tape recordings, especially from private sources. The Library comprises c. 60.000 vols., part of which is placed in the reading room. Regarding accessibility of the records the following regulations apply: Most records from the central administration are accessible, when they are 50 years old. There are, however, exceptions to this principal rule for instance as regards records of a more private character, the limit here being generally 80 years. In most cases scholars will, however, obtain permission to use more recent records for research. For Private Archives the general limit is 80 years, but the person or organization presenting the archives, a person nominated by them, or possibly the Director of the National Archives may permit scholars to use more recent records. The older records of the Royal House are freely accessible. The archives of Kings Frederik VI (died 1839), Christian VIII (died 1848) and Frederik VII (died 1863) are accessible with the permission of the Director of the National Archives. Her Majesty the Queen gives permission to use the archives after 1863. Inventories have been prepared to facilitate use. Some of them are printed in Vejledende Arkivregistraturer, vols. 1—20, others are stencilled or printed in offset with the titles Forebbige Arkivregistraturer, Specialregistraturer or Interne Arkivfortegnelser. A very great number of unprinted inventories is to be found in the inventory room next to the reading room in the form of bound volumes or as card indexes.

Supreme Court of Judicature — Hojesteret Established 1661 as the final court of appeal from High Courts of Justice in Denmark, (until 1814) in Norway and (until 1921) in Iceland, as well as in the Danish colonies in the West Indies and the East Indies. A court of first instance in some cases concerning the nobility. From 1781 to 1826 the court of appeal from the High Court of Justice (Overretten) at Tranquebar, later from the city courts at Tranquebar and Frederiksnagore (Serampore). Before 1781, appeals from the Board of Directors of the East India, later the Asiatic, Company in Copenhagen (the Company Court) as regards sentences of death and matters of personal honour for the staff of the Company might be heard before this court. Besides the appealed cases from the East Indies and the Company Court, cases relating to trade and navigation in North Africa and Asia are also to be found, mainly among those appealed from the Copenhagen courts. The archives of the Supreme Court are extensive and difficult to use, owing to the fact that a considerable part was destroyed by fire in 1794 and 1884. The limit of access to these archives is 80 years. The archives after 1915 are still (1976) in the custody of the Court. Inventory: Register (in folio) 107 no. 2 and (on index slips) in the reading room of the National Archives; register (in folio) of the law-suits 1794-1900 (2 vols, in the same place). Cf. Aa.

National Archives The Board of Trade — Kommercekollegiet 1 7 3 5 — 1 8 1 6 The Board of Trade is the joint designation for General-Landets-Okonomi- og Kommercekollegiet, 1 7 3 5 - 6 8 ; General-Kommercekollegiet, 1 7 6 8 - 7 1 ; Kommercedeputationen, 1 7 7 1 - 7 3 and Generallandokonomi- og Kommercekollegiet, 1773-1816. The Board of Trade was established in 1735 and was in 1816 united with the former Board of Customs (Det vestindisk-guineiske Rente- og General-Toldkammer) to form the Board of Customs and Trade (which see). The Board of Trade's sphere was the whole monarchy (Denmark, Norway, and the Duchies of Slesvig and Holstein) as well as the Danish East Indian possessions Tranquebar, Frederiksnagore (Serampore) and the Nicobars. Until 1797, the Board's functions were topographically divided. The Dano-Norwegian Secretariat (Dansk — Norske Sekretariat) was responsible for some matters within the field of the Guide, e.g. the charter of the African Company, Algerian pirates, etc. The consular service (including the consuls in the Barbary States) was under the German Secretariat (Tyske Sekretariat) until 1777, when the special Foreign and Consular Secretariat (Udenlandske og Konsulatssekretariat) was established. In the same year, the East India Secretariat (Ostindisk Sekretariat) was also established, after the Danish State taking over the East Indian colonies. In 1782, a special Sea Pass Office (Sepaskontor) was added. In 1797, the Board was reorganized according to the subject matter of the files into 1) The Secretariat of Production and Fishing (Produktions- og Fiskerifagets Sekretariat) (under which the Sea Pass Office belonged until 1810, when it passed to the Secretariat of the Trade and Consulates; 2) The Secretariat of Industries and Factories (Industri- og Fabrikfagets Sekretariat); 3 ) The Secretariat of the Trade and Consulates (Handels- og Konsulatsfagets Sekretariat), and 4 ) The East India Secretariat (Ostindisk Sekretariat). Records from the secretariats mentioned under 3) and 4 ) above are of special importance to the Guide. By royal decree of May 2, 1800 relations with Moroccan, Algerian, Tunisian and Tripolitan Governments were placed under a special, newly-established Royal African Consular Directorate (Den kongelige Afrikanske Konsulats-direction) (which see).

Letter book of in- and outgoing dispatches from his expedition to Morocco, 1790—92, 1794. 1 vol. Ships' Archives of the Navy - Marinens Skibsarkiver 1725—1952 This group comprises records such as protocols, etc., which were transferred to the central naval authorities from ships laid up after cruises, in more recent times to the Ministry of Naval Affairs, at present the Ministry of Defence. — This very comprehensive and fairly completely preserved series starts in 1675; transfers have taken place until 1970. The major part of the ships' archives comprises log books, at an early stage supplemented with order books, account books, defaulters' books and (from the last decades of the 19th century) engine room logs. Certain kinds of these protocols have in recent times been separated in special series, e.g. defaulters' books (see below). From an early date the accounts were submitted for audit, they make up a special series, though few accounts only have been preserved (see below: Audited accounts of the Navy). The casebooks by ships' doctors are placed under: The Navy Medical Service (see below). Only on rare occasions did Danish warships cruise to India and Eastern Asia. In the latter half of the 18th century, they generally acted as convoy in the Mediterranean to ships from the Danish Monarchy for their protection against warships of European powers as well as from the Barbary States. During the 18th century some naval officers on leave participated in voyages to the Danish colonies in India and in the China trade: 7 log books kept by such naval officers are registered as a special group below (Ships of the East India Company or the Asiatic Company). 110

The Naval Dockyard - Orlogsvaerftet The Naval Dockyard, which from c. 1550 was situated at Bremer- or Gammelholm, was in 1692 extended with a shipyard at Nyholm, where the naval yard ('Flädens Leje') still is. The Naval Dockyard was transferred in the mid-nineteenth century to Nyholm. In the Naval Dockyard a great number of warships was built for the often large Dano-Norwegian navy of the 18th century. Shipbuilding continued during the following period, and from 1851 an engine factory was added.

The East India Company 1668—ab. 1720, the. Societies ad Interim for the China and India Trade 1729—40, and the Asiatic Company 1732—1845 — Ostindisk Kompagni 1668— ab 1720, 'Interimssocieteterne for handelen pä Kina og Indien' 1729-1740, og Asiatisk Kompagni 1732-1845 The oldest Danish East India Company, established in 1616 by King Christian IV, ceased its activities in 1643, but a Danish governor did, however, retain Tranquebar in Danish hands. Of this first company only a few records have been preserved, listed with the records of the Danish Chancery (which see), especially the bundles Β nos. 244—47. A new Danish East India Company was established in 1668, and from the following year it carried on trade in India from Tranquebar and, 1698-1714, from a factory (lodge) at Dannemarksnagore (close to the present Chandernagore) in Bengal. About 1720, the Company got into trouble, and its activities ceased. Few of the archives of its Copenhagen office has been preserved; more is intact from the Tranquebar Government, but often in bad condition. Between 1729 and 1732, private societies (societies ad interim) carried out some trade expeditions to India as well as to China, some records of which have been preserved. In 1732, the Asiatic Company was established with a 40 year monopoly of the East India and China trade, carrying on shipping and trade until its cessation of business at the beginning of the 1840s, after the Danish-English war, 1807-14, however, only to a very small extent. Besides Tranquebar with the factories (lodges) at Calicut (Kozhikode) and Colachel (College), established in 1752 and 1755, as well as at Porto Novo (Parangipettai), the Company in Bengal had Frederiksnagore (Serampore) established in 1755, with the factories (lodges) at Balasore and Patna (established in 1773, sold in 1828). In the Nicobar Islands, the Company or the Danish State several times tried colonization in 1 7 5 6 - 5 7 , 1 7 6 8 - 8 7 , 1 8 3 1 - 3 4 and 1 8 4 6 - 4 8 but in vain. When India trade (but not China trade) had been permitted for all subjects of the Danish Monarchy against payment of a duty on imported and exported goods to the Company, the Danish State in 1777 took over the Indian colonies, the government of which was placed under the Board of Trade (which see), from 1816 under the Board of Customs and Trade (which see). To the Company now only belonged trade matters proper. The factory in Tranquebar was abolished in 1796, the Bengal section in 1820. Several of the chief archival series of the Asiatic Company have been preserved in toto, but in those series having been kept in India for a long time, many volumes have been damaged by damp. From the Chinamen, there is a series of accounts preserved of the China trade with Canton during the periods in which the Company had a resident factor there. The Company's archives were, in 1840s, transferred to the State archives, the records of the Company's Indian Government having already been transferred to the State at the time of the cession of the colonies; and parts of them were sent to Copenhagen, but certain series of records remained at Tranquebar especially from the period after 1778. In the present inventories, no complete separation between the records of the various companies has been made, neither between those of the royal (State) Government and the copies sent to Copenhagen.

The Royal East India Government — Det kgl. ostindiske Guvernement 1778 - 1845 In 1777, the Danish colonies in India, Tranquebar with the factories (lodges) at Calicut (now Kozhikode) and Colachel (College) as well as those in Bengal Frederiksnagore (Serampore) with the factories (lodges) at Balasore and Patna and finally the Nicobar Islands, passed from the administration of the Asiatic Company to that of the Danish State; often the officials of the Company, however, entered public service, and existing series of journals were, in many cases, continued without any great changes. There are several gaps in the series of records, especially out-letter books, journals and in-letters. The Indian colonies were governed through the Board of Trade (which see) and from 1816, the Board of Customs and Trade (which see). On the cession of the colonies to the English East India Company in 1845, records of permanent interest for the administration of colonies remained at Tranquebar, especially registers of deeds and mortgages, land registers, some records of judgments (sentences) from the City Court and the Black Court, auction and estate administrators' books, bailiff registers, etc., including some letter books. These are now kept in the Madras Record Office. Some documents were, in the 1840s, as specimens, transferred to the then Ethnographic Museum, now the Ethnographic department of the National Museum in Copenhagen, from which some of these were handed over to the Maritime Museum, Kronborg. Not until 1868 did Denmark relinquish its rights to the Nicobar Islands, whereupon Great Britain annexed them in 1869.

The Royal Chartered Danish, Norwegian, Slesvig and Holstein United Trade and Canal Company Handels- og Kanalkompagniet 1782—1814 Officially established according to a charter of May 10, 1782. The company had, however, been operating for several months. The domicile of the board of directors was in Copenhagen, whereas the day-to-day business was managed by two administrations, one of which in Copenhagen, the other one at Altona. The archives of the latter have not been preserved. The charter entitled the company to trade and navigation in the waters of all allowed trading centres, including the East Indies but excepting China. 1783-85 the company had its own ship in the East Indies. According to a royal decree of Sept. 8, 1784, the State paid off the partners of the company with royal bonds.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs — Udenrigsministeriet The Ministry was organized by royal decree of August 8, 1848, succeeding the Department of Foreign Affairs. According to royal decree of November 24, 1848 the consular matters from Board of Customs and Trade (Ministry of Trade) were placed under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and by royal decree of December 11, that year it was laid down that all commercial administration directly dealing with trade relations with foreign countries, formerly handled partly by the Department of Foreign Affairs, partly by the Board of Customs and Trade, was also to be transferred to the Ministry. Consequently a special Department of Trade and Consulates was established January 1, 1849; by royal decree of March 28, 1866 it was abolished with effect from April 1st the same year. In 1909 the journal system was rearranged.

The latest shipping lists sent in (for the year 1904) have not been worked into the tabular summary below, as they have been destroyed. Shipping lists for the following years have only sporadically been sent in and are not separated, they must be sought in the Foreign Ministry B- and C-journal files, at least until 1910. The file material forming the basis of the lists has only partly been preserved and must be sought in the consulate archives. There are furthermore gaps in the lists sent in, thus no lists for e.g. 1860 exist, and the lists for 1858-59 and 1861—62 have only partly been preserved. The lists are divided according to groups which in the list below are stated in brackets. Only lists from consulates inside the field of the guide have, however, been included her: Adelaide (Australia), 1864, 1877-79, 1887, 1889-91, 1 8 9 3 - 9 4 , 1 8 9 6 , 1 8 9 9 , 1 9 0 1 - 0 2 .

Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Period 1 9 0 9 - 4 5 From September 1,1909, the archives of the Ministry were rearranged in a file or classed system, in which all files were, according to their subject, classified in specific main groups (designated by a number), each of which was then divided into sections (desig179
National Archives nated by a letter); these are further divided into separate files (designated by a number), and with the necessary supplements and changes, this system is still used. Immediately after arrival in the Ministry, letters are filed and entered in a series of registers of inletters; in the same way, out-letters are entered. No journals are kept. Each section has, however, an index card, a list of all the files kept in the section with statement of the number and title of each single file. (These cards were, in the early sixties, photoprinted and bound for keeping in the National Archives). In some sections, files are divided according to countries (with re-arrangement of older files), or they have been grouped according to year, in the case of very comprehensive sections. It is to be noted that files before 1909 have often been filed into the new system. The arrangement is not entirely systematic, e.g. groups 79, 83 and 87, comprising records relating to World War I and World War II. After 1945 the great international organizations such as the United Nations Organization (U.N.O.), the Organization for European Economic Co-operation (O.E.E.C.), the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (O.E.C.D.), the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (N.A.T.O.) have also caused problems, the tendency being to give each of these institutions and its sphere a special group number. Under group number 104, records relating to Danida (Danish International Development Agency) are filed. Letter books are no longer kept. For both departments of the Ministry, they exist for 1910-18 (220 vols.) and for the Law Division ('Retsafdelingen') for 1 9 2 1 - 2 2 (16 vols.). Representations to the King with royal assent are available in a series of volumes. Original reports (dispatches) from Danish envoys are placed in series for the various countries, whereas copies are placed in the files to which they belong according to their subject. Among the older series can be mentioned: Bangkok (Thailand) from 1922, Cairo (Egypt) from 1922, Constantinople (Istanbul/Ankara - Turkey), from 1909, Peking (Peiping China) from 1911-35, 1951 onwards, Shanghai 1 9 3 6 - 5 0 and Tokyo (Japan), from 1901. The original treaties from this period - and earlier ones - form a special Treaty Collection (which see). The archives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to 1945 inclusive, are at present (1977) being transferred to the National Archives. Instructions on the filing of records are given in Udenrigsministeriets Arkivsystem (Archives System of the Foreign Service), originally printed without year, later in March 1942 in (stencilled) up-to-date edition. From the turn of the year 1 9 7 5 - 7 6 , the new upto-date Udenrigsministeriets Arkivsystem (Archives System of the Foreign Service), 1975, came into operation, being issued in loose leaf form. The new system has much information on closed sections and possible continuations under other numbers and letters, as well as on eliminations. In the information on files 1909-45 given below, the greatest importance has been attached to main groups, sections and single files, estimated to be of interest to readers of the Guide, the period before c. 1930 having been given prominence to. Often the years of many separate files are lacking, because they are not to be found in the index cards. When the lists of the files transferred to the National Archives have eventually been worked out, they should, by giving the date range, enable statements as to the period covered by any single file.
