Thank you Bo. I knew he went into the military, but the explanation of the dates really helps.  Malmöhus Västerstad Husförhör (Household examination) 1878 - 1887  (AI:32)  Page 306 Västerstads Gård   This is the last reference I can find to Bengt Nilsson Holmqvist, which makes sense because we know he came to America in late May 1883 shortly after the death of his son. Can you tell from the records if Bengt and Ingrid divorced?  She moves to Gudmuntorp and eventually remarried. There are comments on this HFL that I can't decipher either: Malmöhus Gudmuntorp Husförhör (Household examination) 1886 - 1894 (AI:12) Page 20 Marianelunds?

Nils & Anna and Hanna move to Kjerstorp (Östra Kärrstorp) 14-10 1882 #99I checked Östra Kärrstorp but there are no moving in records on ancestry for that time period. I scrolled through the HFL page by page and didn't see them. Is is possible to locate them on the 1890 census (if they haven't died)Thanks for all your help!

Martin, that definitely looks like him.
