Help deciphering a Danish laegdsruller entry
Hello, all,
I'm trying to find information for someone in the Danish laegdsruller. I believe I might have found something, but I'm having trouble deciphering the handwriting and translating it into English. If anyone could help, I'd be most grateful. Arkivalieronline (sa.dk) https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?epid=16481031#17736,888593. It's the 1840 Hovedrulle 1, under laegd 27, number 360/269. If it's the right person, the information on the far right should be about military service. I'm actually looking for this man's son, but hoping there may be a clue here. Thanks in advance!

I am not able to make all of it out and am unsure about a bit of it, but this is what I think it says:
(Served as) Dragoon 1837, 6th (Fyens [Fyns] is crossed out) Reg(iment) who ________________ 38/42 (not sure what that is) Corporal, father at home (?) until 30 June 1845.
The 38/42 appears on image 464 in this book on #325/239, image 469 on #410/305, and image 481 #126/93 as well. And there are other odd "fractions" on other pages, too. They must have a purpose, but I don't know what it is.

I forgot to give this link to a page of abbreviations in the Family Search Wiki for Denmark. It can be helpful in figuring out the military records: https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Denmark_Abbreviations_in_Army_Levying_Rolls
