Thanks Sven-Ove.  I see the birth record for Jonas Jonsson at 509.28.109400.  This family appears in the HFL for 1818-1824 at 509.16.80500, for 1825-1836 at 509.17.111300, and for 1836-1846 at 509.19.32000.  The names are crossed through in the last record, as if they've moved, but I didn't find a record that they moved to Qvarntorp.  I'm not doubting you, but did you note the GID number for their move?  Perhaps I just overlooked it.
 
I would like to think this is the right man.  There are a number of positive indications, but also some contradictions.   He has a brother named Nils (born July 3, 1823), although the town is something other than Risäter (it looks like Mös...?) at 509.28.106900.  My family records indicate that Johannes had a brother named Nils, and 3 or 4 (unidentified) sisters, supposed to have been married in Stockholm, Borgvik, or Falon.  The sisters are supposed to have all lived to around 90 years.  The HFL for the family lists sisters Stina, Catarina, Lisa, and Anna, so this is also supportive, although I haven't had time to trace these sisters forward yet.
 
The HFL only lists the birth year until the one for 1836-1846 (509.19.32000) lists the birth date, although it looks like August 4, 1823 for Nils and April 3, 1829 for Johannes?  Perhaps this family followed a calendar that was not the official church calendar?
 
Also, in 509.19.32000 HFL lists a birth place for Jonas, but I can't read it - it looks like two words - can you help me here?
 
The marriage record (February 1817) for Jonas Jonsson and Anna Nilsdotter is at 509.31.16500 (top of the page).  I can not tell - does it indicate that Jonas is from a farm or village (Västsjö?) in Ovre Ullerud?
 
My family records don't actually say that Johannes' father was Jonas Lindblad, only that his father was Jonas.  I will read some more about searching the military records to see whether I can find Jonas Jonsson of Risäter there.  Perhaps his assigned name in the miltary could have been Lindblad?
 
Johannes Jonsson seems to carry that name until we find him in Karlskoga in 1856 (2458.94.63500), where Jonsson is crossed through and Lindblad is written in.  I had assumed that he changed his name (to match his father's last name) upon his marriage in 1856.  Would this have been customary?  Does the name Lindblad itself indicate anything?
