Corporal Bo Andersson Boman's Birthplace

[Kevin Casey]

Hej!

I'm trying to find the birthplace of Bo Andersson Boman (1653-1753), who served in the Östgöta regemente till fot, Livkompaniet, from 1709 until 1712 (he would later become a Slotzväktarer in Linköping).

The first image is from the 1712 Generalmönsterrullor, and provides Corporal Boman's birth place as "Östergötland och "

The second image is from two pages after the first, that I share because it appears to contain the same place name.

Is this place Nykil? Gammakil? It appears that the word in both images begins with a "U" or an "N," and that the last letters might be "kyl."

Thank you,
Kevin

Thank you, Britt-Marie. I think that makes sense.
