Up until the war of 1864, the duchy of Slesvig (including the area of Sønderjylland) was ruled by the Kingdom of Denmark. Before this time, the military records of Slesvig generally followed the rest of Denmark. However, after Prussia took over in 1864, many of the records changed. Below is a list of the military records found in Sønderjylland/Slesvig, and basic strategies for using the records. | |||
