There are seven hockeyers on the 1964 Hong Kong team that come from Macao. Although they have different histories with regards to Hong Kong, it seems clear that Macau athletes were accepted in the Hong Kong delegation. Therefore, I will consider them as being from Macau.
Since Macao does not currently have an NOC, these athletes must be considered of Chinese nationality.

Seth Edvard Collins

B. 1882-03-09, Finspång, Sweden, represented the Chicago Central YMCA; D. 1943-03-20
Basketball (1 silver)
1904 HP
Men's Team silver 1500

He is not shown on any of the rosters of the matches that are known. Chicago won two matches by default, so the non playing members of the team must be considered Olympians, as they could easily have played one of those matches.
Like Axel Berggren, Collins was born in Sweden. If he had not yet become a US citizen by 1904, he could be considered Swedish, which would mean that Sweden (just like France, Great Britain and Italy) has been present at all Olympic Games.
