Military records identify individuals who served in the military or who were eligible for service. Most young men in Sweden were required to serve in or register for military service. Evidence that an ancestor actually served may be found in family records, biographies, census, probate records, and church records. | Military records identify individuals who served in the military or who were eligible for service.

The catalog lists regiments alphabetically. The regiment name appears in parentheses on the first line under the catalog heading. If you know at least the name of the county from where the ancestor came, you can look in the Family History Library Category under the listings for '''SWEDEN '''and under the topic, "'''''Military Records'''''" to see what kind of military records exist for each county. Most counties will have a listing for each county regiment and the regiment will usually have the name of the county or province as the name of the regiment. For example, in the case of Jönköping, Kalmar and Kristianstad counties, these three counties will be listed under the Småland regiment, which is the province to which all three counties belong. | The catalog lists regiments alphabetically.
