Thank you for your fast reply. Very interesting.

Would it be possible to get the details of his service translated? When did he get to Otocac, that is where his wife is from, they married in 1853.

@fricibacsi Basically, they have listed the dates and the names of the regiments he joined and the details of his service.

Regarding your question, the document says that on 30 April 1848 he joined the Ottocanner border regiment No 2, and in 1853 he married Margaretha, daughter of the tradesman Wolfgang Següscic.

I hope this helps.
