The 1836 muster appears to have company/rote numbers rather mixed up as compared to the accepted ordering denoted by Grill. I have also figured out the reason Djupvik is recorded as number 909. You were right, Ingela. The numbering is a leftover from the days when the regiment was part of Närke & Värmland regiment. The old N-V regiment used a peculiar numbering system which counted rotes located in Värmland separately from rotes located in Närke (Örebro county). While rotes were organized much differently in N-V regiment than in Värmland regiment, it seems the commanders retained the old numbering system even after N-V regiment was split in two. Hence, the so-called soldier number or regiment number in these Värmland regiment musters appears to follow no discernable pattern or order. How bizarre!
