The project "Ryttare i Bohuslän" deals with the period 1685 ̶ 1727 and complements previously published documents by Bohusläns Försvarsmuseum . The research, which has been going on for about three years, has been done voluntarily by former officers at Bohuslän's regiment.

Information about Rutger von Ascheberg's enlisted riders and newly recruited men, who were enlisted in 1685 in Bohuslän as the northern squadron of the Queen's Life Regiment on horseback, is the starting point for the project's documentation. The information has been followed up by the divisions in 1689 and 1696. Further on, information on officers and riders, homesteads, root or armorers and other facts have been collected by district from rolls up to and including 1725. Lantmäteriet's maps and documents have provided facts about homesteads and villages. An account of the Bohuslän horsemen's participation in wars has been collected in a separate chapter.
