Titel: Help confirming my translation

Attached is an image from the 1789 population registry for Brandstad. The entry is for Rasmus Bonnesson. He is the second entry for house number 11.
I believe it says Reserve man Rasmus Bonnesson, wife one child. The hi-lighted word I am unsure of looks like "karlen". The first letter does not look like a K it looks more like a C. I believe "karlen" translates to man. So it looks live he is a reserve soldier.
Am I correct in my translation?
Also what are the letters before his name? It appears on a lot of the entries on the sheet.
