Hi Jan,
I think if you read Olle's post from 20 April you will see he explains that my ideas about the soldier origins of 'Hage' are wrong and I agree with him. I saw the notation 'Hagen' next to Olof Jansson's name and thought it might be a soldier name. Instead, it appears to be the name of the farm where they lived. Even today there is a farm near Hungalsvik called Dalhagen that could be the same place. John Hage apparently followed the example of his older brother, Nils, and adopted the Hage surname from place they lived.
However, you likely still have the soldier Nils Andersson Olfeldt in your ancestry.
