Titel: Need help with soldier information on early 1700's tax records at Vänneböke Södergård, Hinneryd parish

Attached are four tax records (1704, 1705, 1707, 1715) showing the soldier Nils' wife. I'm trying to find out more about the soldier Nils Svensson but I don't find him listed in Centrala Soldatregistret under his patronymic name. It looks like he was a soldier on horseback but I am not sure what the first part of these listings say or where I could begin looking for him. The 1715 tax record looks a little different from the 1705 and 1707 records. What is the difference between these records?
There is an unmarried Rytt Nils there in 1702. Nils Svensson died there in 1723 but was listed in the tax records through that time, so it appears he was a soldier at the time of his death, although his death appears unrelated to him military service. Since there are no patronymic names listed I am not sure if every Nils is the same man.
