Biography

Anders was born about 1685. He was the son of Isaac Olufssen and Ingeborg Andersdotter. He passed away in 1738. He was buried 30 Apr 1738.[1]

After his fathers retirement from being Rusthållare and Ryttare, Anders took over that duty in 1705. He was posted in (commanded to) Skåne from 1709, Captured by the Danish 12 Feb 1710 near Hästveda . That probably saved his life because he couldn't serve in the Battle of Helsingborg 28 Jan 1710 where 393 of 485 Swedish ryttare was killed. But the Swedish became victory of the battle and Anders came back to his regiment after the battle. In 1712 he was commended to Pommern and was participating in the battle of Gadebusch Dec 20. During the Swedish capitulate in Tönningen 16 Maj 1713 he got taken as a prisoner. Escaped from prison he came home in November 1716 and back to service. Dissmissed 1730.

Återkom till sitt regemente efter segern. Kommenderad till Pommern 1712 och deltog i slaget vid Gadebusch 20 december. Vid kapituleringen i Tönningen 16 maj 1713 fick Anders gå i fångenskap.
