"Afgången för siuklighet d: 12 oct 1747", he quit because of bad health. The seventh column is about his horse so nothing interesting there. The fifth column reads "Halling", he was born in Halland but I guess you figured that out already.

Thank you, Kalle! If I have the correct Assar, his children were born in Konga, so it seems strange that he was from Halland. However, his Centrala Soldatregistret entry says his rote was Ask, so perhaps this makes sense.

He was born in Halland but moved to Skåne to be a soldier and possibly stayed there afterwards. Soldiers often moved some distance to find an occupation, unlike farmers that normally stayed close to where they was born. But Halland is where you should search for this man's birth.
