Hi Klas,
Thank you for the further information!
I had also posted another request on this topic, which is found at:
https://forum.rotter.se/index.php?topic=180546.0
Kalle kindly pointed out to me that " It does not say "ryttare", it says "knekt" shorted to Ktt which is an old word for soldier. So I guess the soldier Lennart found for you in the other topic might be right anyway."
So, my translation of ryttare was incorrect! :) I still have a lot of trouble with the old handwriting and abbreviations.
But, I will look into the other words to see if I'm missing anything else!
Thank you so much for your help. It is very much appreciated!
