This is one of my 4th great grandfathers: Ola Modig born 1743 03 13 ( I think I have been on the wrong trail for quite a while!) I thought this was his birth record born to Mans Olsson and Pernilla Christesdotter. Hörja CI:1 (1690-1775) Image 63 / page 55 (AID: v99623.b63.s55, NAD: SE/LLA/13182) but then it looks like he dies in his first year here Hörja CI:1 (1690-1775) Image 100 / page 95 (AID: v99623.b100.s95, NAD: SE/LLA/13182) His military record is below and I have tracked from enlistment to death. What I can’t see is if there is any indication of what his family name or birth name was. I have his son’s birth record and HFL’s down to my grandmother’s birth so I know it’s the correct Ola, but his parentage is in serious doubt now. Any ideas or did I miss something on one of the General Musters below MODIG Ohla Family name:- Birth date: 17430313 Death date: 18001009 Enlisted: 1772 Discharged: - File number: SH-01-0054-1772 Regiment: Skånska Husarregementet File: Norra Fredskog 1 Company: Livkompaniet Parish: Farstorp Croft Number: SH-01-0054 This is his first entry Generalmönsterrullor - Skånska husarregementet 902 (1775-1775) Image 340 (AID: v376607.b340, NAD: SE/KrA/0023) Generalmönsterrullor - Skånska husarregementet 903 (1779-1779) Image 270 (AID: v376608.b270, NAD: SE/KrA/0023) Generalmönsterrullor - Skånska husarregementet 904 (1783-1783) Image 430 (AID: v376656a.b430, NAD: SE/KrA/0023) Generalmönsterrullor - Skånska husarregementet 905 (1787-1787) Image 340 (AID: v376657a.b340, NAD: SE/KrA/0023) Generalmönsterrullor - Skånska husarregementet 907 (1791-1791) Image 290 (AID: v376659a.b290, NAD: SE/KrA/0023) Generalmönsterrullor - Skånska husarregementet 908 (1794-1794) Image 310 (AID: v376660a.b310, NAD: SE/KrA/0023) Generalmönsterrullor - Skånska husarregementet 909 (1797-1797) Image 30 (AID: v376661a.b30, NAD: SE/KrA/0023) This is his last giving his death Generalmönsterrullor - Skånska husarregementet 910 (1801-1801) Image 310 (AID: v376662.b310, NAD: SE/KrA/0023) His son Sven born 1788 to Ola Modig and Estred Zachrisdotter Norra Rörum CI:2 (1774-1823) Image 50 / page 83 (AID: v111347.b50.s83, NAD: SE/LLA/13279) His Marriage to Estred Zachrisdotter in 1774 Norra Rörum CI:2 (1774-1823) Image 189 / page 361 (AID: v111347.b189.s361, NAD: SE/LLA/13279) Is there anything on that first Generalmonsterrullor that I missed...I'm just starting to explore these records and they are still mostly "greek" to me! Any direction will be appreciated Rhonda

One possibility is that the parents had another son soon, and named him Ola. Or that your Ola was born elsewhere, to different parents... > > His military record is below and I have tracked from enlistment to death. > What I can’t see is if there is any indication of what his family name or > birth name was.

According to the age recorded he should be born about 1745. The 1801 muster roll tells that Ohla Modig in Nödarp died 15 Dec 1800, age 66, had served 28 years. According to the age recorded he should be born about 1735. The 1779 muster roll gives his age as 35, so born about 1744. The 1787 muster roll gives his age as 43, so born about 1744. But in 1791 he has suddenly aged to 57 years, born about 1734! // Bo Johansson
