Lægdsruller, Denmark: Danish army levying rolls, which are records kept by the parish that list all males up to age 34 in a parish. Beginning in 1788 these records were taken every three years and were used as a list of potential draftees. If a male age 34 or younger moved to a new parish, the levying roll usually notes the new parish's identification number. These records can help establish where a male ancestor was living when other important records were made. | Lægdsruller, Denmark: Danish army levying rolls, which are records kept by the parish that list all males up to age 34 in a parish.
