Thank you so much for clarifying! I believe (for now anyway) that Kirstin Nilsdotter is the widow of the soldier Anders (no patronmic name so far). She is listed as the soldier Anders' wife on the tax records for Tommaryd from 1691 through 1715 when she is listed there by name as Ryttåre's wife Kirstin - which seems to imply that Anders was still living in 1715. The widow Kirstin died in 1737 and was born, according to her death record, in 1656. I have not been able to find a death record for Anders so far. I'm still researching him, hoping to find him in the military records, using the regiments suggested by Lennart.

I am quite sure that Kirstin is the mother of the Måns Andersson born in 1700, and also the mother of Nils Andersson and the soldier Pehr (Andersson) Tåman who are all listed on the 1717-1723 household record. But, I'm still trying to find my ancestor Corporal Måns Andersson's birthplace (Soldier #93 at Tommaryd in 1718). He was born ca 1688-1690. Maybe he was also from Tommaryd. Based on the age of Kirstin, it is possible that this Kirstin and this Anders could be the parents of Corp Måns Andersson Wåkman. It is puzzling that both of the Måns Anderssons appear on the same GMR record in 1718 at Tommaryd under the solider number #93. It's a mystery. Were they siblings with the same name? I have it seen in Norwegian research where one is referred to as the elder and one is the younger, but don't believe I've ever seen this in my Swedish research, where both were still alive.
Little by little, I'm gathering the pieces to determine what is true.
Thanks for all the help!
