Swedish Household Examination Books
The following baptism is out of wedlock. I have the mother's genealogy. But does this record give any information that could lead me to find the father, Anders Andersson?

Thank you for your help. I don't know what we could accomplish without your expertise. Diane M. Anderson

I assume that you refer to the birth of #53 Per August, correct?
Anders Andersson and his wife are listed as witnesses of the baptism, not as the father.

Does the record list anything about the father? The marriage record for Per lists his father as Anders Andersson Lind

A father is not mentioned in this record.

Per August gets the name Andersson, see Asker Al:25b page 619, here we can also see that his mother is both deaf and mute. Per august moved away in this record, to Karlsborg, specifically to "Göta artilleri regemente" my guess from this is that he was to become a soldier. His fathers name is never mentioned in any of the records I've checked. In Asker Al:21b page 573 it says " o.ä son till döfstumma, ej confirmerade Anna Kajsa Andersdotter.." I believe that in this case Per August got is surname from his grand father and that he just pulled a name from the air in his wedding record in Norway. His mother was deaf and mute so she would most likely not travel very far by her self. So her getting pregnant doesn't sound very good.

In asker Alla:2 page 684 it says, Artillerist Per August Andersson Lind, he did become a soldier. It's also noted that he was given the permission to move to Norway in 1900-11-05 as nr 143, you should be able to find him in the move out record, eg book "B", I was curios so I linked the move recordhttps://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/00163325_00047#?c=&m=&s=&cv=46&xywh=2493%2C273%2C2655%2C1744
In Norway he dropped the name Andersson and just kept Lind, Lind is most likely a soldier name
His death record:

He can also be found in the military records at Karlsborg, see Karlsborgs garnisonsförsamling Al:39 page 56

You should be able to track him backwards and forward from here

Per August got the name Andersson probably from his mother Andersdotter and his maternal grandfather Anders Erssons. This is quite typical for children born out of wedlock.

Per August's mother was both deaf and mute. There is no father mentioned anywhere except in his wedding record in Norway. Anders Andersson Lind that he says is his father in the record is most likely false
I did some research on Per Augusts alleged father. It's pretty safe to say that this is a wrong match!
First it's 333 Km between Asker Parish and Södra Hestra, then I tracked Ander Andersson whom was never called "Lind" I find it impossible for him to both travel that far and even meet with a deaf mute girl.
