Hello,

I think I have the military record for Niels Pedersen, son of Peder Hansen, born 25 Mar 1775 in Bovense, Vindinge, Svendborg, Denmark.

He appears to be added via the Tilgangsrule list here K-87: https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?epid=16481031#17606,843677

He is also here in 1803 K-87: https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?epid=16481031#17610,844778

According to his birth record he should be age 26/27 in 1801 not 23 so I think I am reading the military record wrong.  There are some comments to the right in his record if someone could translate for me I might understand what it all means.  I am trying to learn how to access military records better and would like to know if I am doing something right because I came across the same age problem with his brother, Hans Pedersen, where the age was always off to the year of the list.

Is this military record for the wrong Niels Pedersen?

I think I have Niels in the 1801 Census as follows:

Year:   FT-1801   Source reference:   Side 47   
Household No:   5   
Parish:   Flødstrup   District:   Vindinge
Shire:   Svendborg   Place name:   Flødstrup Bye
Source entry No:   b3611   Record No.:   69

Niels Pedersen     27     Ugift     tienestefolk     nationalsoldat

C196 - now in Langtved + dismissed at the session 1806 - and striken out.

He is prob. here in 1787
Svendborg, Vindinge, Bovense, Strandskov, , 1, FT-1787, B4264
Mads Pedersen     48     Gift     husbond     Bonde. Gaardboer      
Kirsten Pedersdatter     52     Gift     madmoder           
Jørgen Pedersen     22     Ugift     madmoders barn           
Maren Jensdatter     18     Ugift     tjenestefolk           
Niels Pedersen    12     Ugift     tjenestefolk           
Hans Andersen     6     Ugift     plejebarn

and searching on his name in this census reveals only him - so it must be right NP, you have fund.

Thanks for translating that Ole.  Can you think why his age is always off in the military records?
