Thank you for clearing that up! :) I thought Erik might be found at Dragaryd. His father would have been Per so I also thought that fit, but there are a lot of Pers! There's a big gap in the tax records for Kånna (between 1718 and 1746) which were the years that the Erik Törnqvist was the soldier.
Yesterday I spent my time following Erik's children to see if I could find a connection between Erik Persson and Erik Törnqvist but nothing so far.
Any suggestions where else I could look? I've looked back at the tax records to 1700 and it looks like Per is still there at Dragaryd but, of course, I really even know if that is Erik's father.
I can continue following Erik's children, but it doesn't appear that there is any tie back to the name Törnqvist, at least, so far.
I have a nagging question about this though. Do you think that the name Törnqvist would have been used on his wife's death record in 1757 - well, after he left military service in 1739?
