Nancy, you must at least provide the name of the parish where he lived as a soldier, the name of the province plus an approximate period of time when the ancestor served as a soldier. With this information in hand it might be possible to find the regiment by looking at Grill's Statistiskt sammandrag af svenska indelningsverket I - IV (Statistical Digest of the Swedish Allotment System) from 1856. This is the best source to locate the unit a soldier served in. For more information about researching soldiers, please have a look at: http://www.algonet.se/~hogman/soldiers_research.htm
If he had his soldier's croft in Haraker, Västmanland he could have been serving in the Västmanland regiment or the Livregementet till häst (Mounted Life Regiment). Hans Högman
