Thanks for that information!

Here is the correction:

I looked at the tax records for Hinneryd but did not find him.  I reviewed the tax records I had for him and noticed something interesting.  This is a recap.

Beginning with the first tax record in Torpa he is listed as follows:

1749  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Nilsson  Ryttare   
  https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840180?image=1700&page=327
1750  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Nilsson  Ryttare
   https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840181c?image=2640&page=515
1751  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Nilsson  Ryttare
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840182c?image=2850&page=551
1752  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Nilsson  Ryttare
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840183c?image=2830&page=553
1754  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Nilsson
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840185?image=3220&page=633
1755  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Nilsson
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840186?image=3180&page=625
1756  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Nilsson  Ryttare
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840187?image=3300&page=647
1757  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Nilsson  Ryttare
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840188?image=3260&page=631
1758  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Forsberg  Ryttare
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840189a?image=3500&page=685
1759  Norrtorpa Mellang, Torpa  Tor Forsberg  Ryttare
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840190?image=3040&page=591
1760  NorrtorpaMellang, Torpa  Tor Forsberg  Ryttare
    https://app.arkivdigital.se/volume/v840191a?image=3530&page=681
No more tax records for him after 1760.

So, if he was listed as a Ryttare at least from 1749 to 1752, shouldn't there be a record for that time also?  I believe he was living in Annerstad before that so I'll have to check to see if he was listed even earlier.  But, even so, it appears he was using his patronymic name.  I'll look further to see if there's anything else I can find out about his military time.

Update: I'm still looking for where Tor Nilsson was living prior to Norrtorpa Mellang. His first child, Jöns, was born in Grimshult, Annerstad in 1744, which is where his mother is from.

Thanks again for your help,
