| 112 | From 1185, a Danish expansion commenced, thrusting into Northern Germany, annexing Ditmarsken, Holsten, Lauenburg, Mecklenburg, Venden [Wagria], and Pomerania. This expansionary phase came to a close with the defeat of Valdemar II "the Victorious" at the battle of Bornhøved in 1227. Portions of the region remained on Danish hands, however; Femern [Fehmarn] continued to be Danish for some time after 1227; Rygen [Rügen] from 1169 until 1348; and Northern Estonia from 1219 until 1346. http://www.scholiast.org/history/denmark/danhist2.html | SEJR, Konge af Danmark Valdemar II (I1123)

The nave has a beamed ceiling, in the choir was in the Gothic period built a cross vault. The tower with a pyramid roof was added in the late Middle Ages, in the bottom are granite ashlars and at the top monk bricks. It was restored in 1873. A tall pointed arch connects the vaulted tower room with the nave. The porch is in the same material and from the same period as the tower. The walled Communion table is in granite ashlars. The altar piece from 1774 was given by Ide Cathrine Lassen of Buderupholm. An earlier altar picture is on the south wall of the nave and upon the north wall is an altar piece from 1908. The granite font is Romanesque and the brass baptismal bowl is Nürnberg type from the end of the 1500s. The pulpit with small evangelist-paintings was given by parish priest Claus Christensen Worde and wife in 1663 and made by the Aalborg- cabinetmaker Thomas Nielsen.

The farm Ris was in 1394 conveyed by Peder Høeg to hr. Jens Nielsen Løvenbalk, who in 1412 sold it to Alling kloster. tranlated from Danish: Løvenbalk, Jens Nielsen, -o. 1438, Rigsraad, was the son of Niels Eriksen L. to Avnsbjærg whose father is reported to have been an illegitimate son of King Christopher II,. Although he owned and inhabited also Avnsbjærg. Since 1424 he declares that he is 80 years old and in 40 years has been in Rigens Raad, should he be born in 1344, but this indication is perhaps hardly fully reliable; found him in any case not mentioned before 1390, but then he may indeed also all have an excellent man, for when Queen Margrethe in 1396 ordered the administration of justice in his kingdom, she JN to Chief justice in Nørre Jutland, which is significant official he still coated 1426.

They circumstances of the killing kjendes not, but it did at least no decrease in his public reputation. Even in 1424 he was one of the first secular Great Men who presented evidence in the process relating Sønderjylland as he was a of arbitrators in the big Tired from Queen Philippa and the bishop of Ulrik Aarhus concerning legacy of its Chairman, Bishop Bo, but then lost his name more and more. He mentioned yet in 1430, but must first be dead in 1438, although not 94 years old, so, however, probably at a very high age. He was begraven in Graabrødrene in Viborg, and it was as bekjendt, on his gravestone, that His Tausen must have held its first Lutheran sermon. With his wife, Ellen Daughter Peder Munk from Holbæk Gaard, JN had at least 2 sons and 5 daughters, from which prestigious jyske Genera originated. | LØVENBALK, Jens Nielsen (I1107)

| 118 | Gunnhildr Sveinsdóttir From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Gunhild Sveinsdotter) Jump to: navigation, search Gunnhildr Queen consort of Sweden Reign 1022–1050 Spouse Anund Jacob of Sweden Issue Gyda of Sweden Father Sveinn Hákonarson Mother Holmfrid of Sweden Born Norway Died c. 1060 Gudhem, Västergötland, Sweden Burial Gudhem, Västergötland, Sweden Contemporary Swedish depiction of a queen as a chess piece Gunnhildr Sveinsdóttir or Gunnhildr Haraldsdóttir, Guda or Gyda. (Traditionally died in Gudhem, Västergötland, Sweden, c. 1060), was a Swedish and Danish Medieval and Viking Age queen, queen consort of king Anund Jacob of Sweden and of king Sveinn II of Denmark. Her parentage is not confirmed; she is called Gunnhildr Sveinsdóttir or Gunnhildr Haraldsdóttir depending on parentage. She is also sometimes called Guda or Gyda, but this is probably because she is often confused with her daughter, Princess Gyda Anundsdóttir of Sweden, who is also known under her mother's name Gunnhildr. Contents [hide] * 1 Background * 2 Queen of Sweden * 3 Queen of Denmark * 4 Later life * 5 References * 6 Succession [edit] Background The information about Queen Gunnhildr is often contradictory. Some sources claim that she was the child of the Norwegian Saint Harald, but the other suggested parentage is considered more likely. Here, she is said to be the child of the Norwegian jarl Svein Håkonsson and Princess Holmfrid of Sweden, daughter (or sister) of king Olof Skötkonung and sister of king Emund the Old of Sweden. [edit] Queen of Sweden Gunnhildr married king Anund Jacob on an unknown date. Sometimes, the marriage is called childless, and sometimes, they were said to have a daughter by the name of Gyda, sometimes also kalled Guda or Gunnhildr. It is possible that Gyda was the daughter of Anund by another woman, and that Gunnhildr was her stepmother. Gunnhildr and her daughter/stepdaughter Gyda are often confused with each other. Gyda was married to king Sveinn II of Denmark, who had spent some time at the Swedish court during his political exile from Denmark, in about 1047, but she soon died (in 1048/49). [edit] Queen of Denmark In 1050, King Anund Jacob died, and Queen Dowager Gunnhildr went to Denmark and married her stepdaughter's widower, her former son-in-law King Sveinn Estridsson of Denmark. The marriage did not last long; the church considered the marriage illegal because they were to closely related - either because they were cousins, or because Sveinn had been married to her daughter - and they were threatened with excommunication if they did not separate. Gunhild was thereby forced to return to Sweden, in 1051/52. Gunnhildr and her daughter's marriage with Sveinn have also been confused with each other. [edit] Later life Gunnhildr returned to her estates in Västergötland were she, according to tradition, spent her remaining days in pious repentance for her sins and religious acts. She is raported to have founded a studio of the making of textiles and habits for clerical use. Her most known work was a choirgown she made for the cathedral of Roskilde. According to legend, she was to have founded the convent of Gudhem Abbey in 1052/54. In reality, however, this convent was founded exactly one hundred years later (in 1152). It is possible that the legend of the convent came about because she and her women lived an isolated religious life and the making of churchrobes on her estates; one of her estates is believed to have been Gudhem. Adam of Bremen calls her Sanctissima, and describes her hospitability toward the missionary bishop Adalvard, who had been turned away from Skara by King Emund the Old. Tradition says she died in Gudhem, were she had "shown so much virtue" during her set-back, and was buried under a gravestone shaped to her likeness. The years of her birth and death are not known, but she survived her first husband (d. 1050) and lived during the reign of king Emund the Old of Sweden (reign 1050–1061). One suggested date of her death is 1060.

| 121 | Harald Bluetooth, king of Denmark, c. 950-985, succesor to his father, Gorm the Old. He extended his rule over Schleswig, the mouth of the Oder, and Norway. He recognized Otto I of Germany as his suzerain and was forced to accept Christianity. - Dictionary of Medieval Civilization by Joseph Dahmus He was the son of King Gorm the Old of Denmark and of Thyra, daughter of a noblemen of Schleswig (Sunderjylland) who is supposed to have been kindly disposed towards Christianity. His mother must have implanted in the child's soul the first germs of faith which his father, a devout servant of Wotan, did his utmost to destroy. The latter's invasion of Friesland in 934 involved him in war with the German King, Henry I. Having been vanquished, he was forced to restore the churches which he had demolished as well as to grant toleration to his Christian subjects, and he died one year later, bequeathing his throne to Harold. Bishop Unni of Bremen, accompanied by Benedictine monks from the Abbey of Corvey, preached the gospel in Jutland (Jylland) and the Danish isles, and soon won the confidence of the young ruler, although he did not succeed in persuading him to receive baptism. Harold sought to shut the Germans out of his kingdom by strengthening the "Danawirk"-a series of ramparts and fortifications that existed until the latter half of the nineteenth century; moreover, as absolute quiet prevailed throughout the interior, he was even able to turn his thoughts to foreign enterprises. Again and again he came to the help of Richard the Fearless of Normandy (in the years 945 and 963), while his son conquered Semland and, after the assassination of King Harold Graafeld of Norway, he also managed to force the people of that country into temporary subjection to himself. Meanwhile the new religion had become more and more deeply rooted among the Danes. Even a few members of the nobility (such as Frode, Viceroy of Jutland) embraced the faith and soon episcopal sees were established (Schleswig, Ribe, Aarhus). However the prominent part the Germans had in these achievements as well as the lofty idea of the Roman Empire then prevailing led Otto I, the Great, to require Harold to recognize him as "advocatus", or lord protector of the Danish church, and even as "Lord Paramount". It is easy to understand why the indignant king of the Danes replied to this demand with a declaration of war, and why the "emperor" sought to force his "vassal" into subjection. The devastating expeditions, which were pushed as far as the Lÿmfjord, enabled the emperor to beat down all opposition (972), and to compel Harold not only to conclude peace but to accept baptism. Henceforth paganism steadily lost ground. The Bishopric of Odense was established at Fünen (Fyen) in 980; the sacrificial grove at Lethra (on Zealand), which, until then, had been from time to time the scene of many human sacrifices, was deserted. King Harold removed his royal residence to Roeskilde and erected there a wooden church dedicated to the Holy Trinity. Later (in the eleventh century) it was replaced by a basilica which in turn was soon torn down. Since about the year 1200 its site has been occupied by the Gothic cathedral (dedicated to St. Lucius), the burial place of the kings of Denmark. Christian houses of worship were also built in many other places during Harold's reign; in these German and Danish priests preached the gospel of the crucified and risen Saviour. There is no doubt that Harold professed Christianity at that time: it is also true that he contributed to its spread. But his moral conduct in many respects distinctly violated the Divine commandments. Consequently many people looked on the plots that were directed against the sovereignty and life of the ageing prince by his own son (Svend) as a punishment from Heaven. Although baptized, the latter joined forces with Palnatoke, the most powerful chieftain on Fünen, who was leader of the heathen party. The fortunes of war varied for a time, but finally Harold was slain on 1 November, 985 or 986. His remains were buried in the cathedral at Roeskilde, where his bones are still preserved, walled up in one of the pillars of the choir. Transcribed by WGKofron With thanks to Fr.

| 125 | Helene Guttormsdatter, 1172-1211, the wife of Esbern Snare, was a daughter of the Swedish earl Guttorm, who once fetched king Carl Sverkersons bride in Denmark and on the same occasion was godfather to Valdemar I the Great's son Knud (1163). Helene was probably named after the Holy Helene of Skøfde, a celebrated saint , who was canonized in 1164 and wellknown in the folklore of northern Sjælland. When Esbern Snare lost his second wife Ingeborg he - although not quite young anymore - married the young beautiful Helene. In this marriage was born the daughter Ingeborg af Kalundborg and maybe more children. Soon after Esberns death in 1204 Helene became Valdemar II Sejr's frille (mistress) and had the son Knud. But in 1205 Valdemar married Dagmar of Bohemia , and his relationship to Helene supposedly stopped - it seems that Helene left Denmark. She died in Roskilde ab. 1211, but she was not buried in Sorø like Esberns other wives , and from diplomas from the 14th century it appears that she established 'Vor Frue Kapel' by Linköbing Cathedral, where she probably chose her burial place. (NB: She died in 1211 39 years old, and was buried in Vreta Kloster). Her gift to the church was later increased by her son's son Svantopolk Knudsen and his family. Valdemar II Sejr honoured his and Helene's son Knud by making him a duke, (Knud of Blekinge) , and he gave him his own property in Sweden. Helene left him a considerable inheritage there too. Knud was married to Hedvig, a daughter of duke Svantepolk in Poland. They had the before mentioned son Svantopolk, who was married to Benedicta, a granddaughter of king Sverker 2. of Sweden and Ingegerd, and two daughters, Elisabeth, married to duke Erik of Halland, and Cæcilie, married to Philip (Folkunge).

| 127 | Herman, Duke of Saxony From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Hermann (died 27 March 973, Quedlinburg) was a Saxon nobleman and the oldest well-known member of the House of Billung. Hermann's parents are unknown. Hermann is generally counted as the first Billung duke of Saxony, but his exact position is unclear. By 953, King Otto I, who was also duke of Saxony, was entrusting more and more of his authority in Saxony to Hermann during his absences. However, Hermann was never named as duke in royal documents. Instead, he is named as military leader, count, and margrave. His son Bernard inherited and strengthened his father's position and managed to be recognized as duke. Hermann's activities were centered around the northeastern borders of the Kingdom; he fought against the Slavic tribes of the Redarians, Abotrites, and Wagrians. He had property around Lüneburg and founded the monastery of St. Michael in that city.

| 129 | His widow Ingeborg, named Fru Ingeborg of Kalundborg, was on Kalundborg castle for 20 years after his death as the mighty Frue (lady of the castle) and showed to be a benefactor of Sorø. With consent from her kinsmen, among those her half brother, duke Knud, she conveyed all her estate in Bringstrup and Ørslev in 1250 to Sorø. Likewise she gave gifts to Århus Cathedral in the honour of The Holy Niels. In 1247 most of Sorø Kloster (the Kloster built by Absalon) burnt down, and about 10 years later fru Ingeborg gave a big gift to the Kloster, which made the monks able to have stone vaults built in the church and thereby prevent further fires. The first village church Esbern Snare let build was Ubby in 1170 and already shortly after 1200 it was rebuilt - maybe by his daughter, fru Ingeborg. During the tension between the Danish crown and duke Erik Abelsen, Ingeborg's son Anders, who first was Abel's marsk, positioned himself on the duke's side. He was seen in the duke's entourage after his victory in Lohede in 1261. The Hvide-family had a strong connection to the Abel-line and a big part of the family gave its support, but the Abel- line lost the battle of the Danish crown to Kristoffer I. This must have been considered a treason against the crown,and Ingeborg was driven away from Kalundborg by Erik Glipping the next year (1262) and died in Hedeby, Schleswig in 1267. Ingeborg's sister Cæcilie was mother-in- law to Lave Gudmundsen, who was convicted for the murder of Erik Plovpenning in 1252. After a period of 100 year's alliance between the Hvide-family and the royal power the whole thing had begun eroding. | HVIDE, Ingeborg Esbernsdatter (I713)

He was the son of the prefect His Kaas . 12 years old, he came to Denmark as a page in the later Chancellor Count Conrad Reventlow . In its 18th Kaas years entered into 2 Zealand Rider Regiment from below by educating themselves in war craft. In six years, he participated in the Spanish War of Succession , was featured in the famous battle and was again and again severely wounded. After the Battle of Höchstädt ( 1704 ) he was appointed to the grain in the Regiment on horseback , by Ramillies ( 1706 ) to Lieutenant after Malplaquet ( 1709 ) to captain at Sealand national Dragoon Regiment and now turned back to Denmark. 1711 he was promoted to Major by 2 Funen Rider Regiment in 1714 as a reward for his "illustrious Conditions' at Gadebusch to lieutenant colonel . In this position he remained for 17 years until he, after in 1725 having been colonel's character in 1731 was appointed commander of the 2nd Jutland Rider Regiment. This belonged to the corps on the occasion of the Polish tronfølgestrid 1734 - 36 was sent to the Riparian and Kaas was here in 1735 Major General . 1746 he rose to lieutenant general , 1753 to the general of the cavalry and were decorated in 1740 with Dannebrog- , 1754 with l'Union parfaite and 1760 with the Elephant . During the mobilization in 1758 and the following year he was designated as head of a reserve corps that was never informed. 1763 resigned his command of his regiment, but was used for some years thereafter through inspections and 1ign. After nearly 70 years of honorable service he closed his eyes 1 July 1773 on Boltinggård. Kaas was an intrepid soldier and a capable, practical officer with warm interest in his condition and his weapon, but his talent as a driver has hardly been commensurate with the high rank, he gradually reached up to. His company subfield trains on the Rhine, the only time he was given the opportunity to actively perform in a higher command post is at least been severely criticized, and the points he makes in his autobiography, clearly well on some reading, but not scant strategic or tactical insight - neither when he acts as a defender of the relaxation of the leadership of titnævnte campaign or when he, as late as 1765 , asserting that a (of Frederick II's famous rider generals introduced) "upcoming Maxime to hunt against his enemy contrary to all Erfa Purity ". But Kaas was on the whole a legitimate conservative nature, also in the administrative area one born opponent so to speak, of any reform. Faced with his subordinates, and in particular 'the so-called vile man', he was a benevolent and sympathetic superior officer; however, accused him of during the war in Germany to have been guilty of bad udsugelser to residents. Kaas was 2 times married but had no children: 1 time ( 1713 ) with Anne Wind f von der Kuhla (1684 - 26 March 1744), the widow of Captain Erik Banner (dead on Helsingborg March 10, 1710) and daughter of Bendix von der Kuhla to Løgtved ; 2 time ( 30 July 1750 ) with Regitse Sophie born Baroness Güldencrone (May 25, 1710 - December 18, 1792), widow of ritmester Christopher Frederick Ahlefeldtsgade (d. 1749) and daughter of George Baron Güldencrone to Urup . She was 1758 dame de l'Union parfaite. With his first wife got Kaas Boltinggård, with the other Nordskov , both on Funen . The last farm he sold, the first as well as Dilutables Farm, which he acquired, he established the estate Kaaseslund , which was later substituted by a fideikommiskapital , and was held by the family Huitfeldt (-Kaas). As a landowner he worked for humane purposes: Refurbished churches, extended schools and established a hospital. | KAAS, Henrik Bielke (I1417)

| 134 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascanian The Ascanian House is a dynasty of German rulers. One of its oldest known members was Otto, Count of Ballenstedt, who died in 1123. It is named after the City of Aschersleben. By Otto's marriage to Eilika, daughter of Magnus, Duke of Saxony, the Ascanians became heirs to half of the property of the great House of Billung. Otto's son, Albert the Bear, was the first Ascanian Margrave of Brandenburg; he inherited the territory from its last Wendish ruler, Pribislav, in 1150. Albert, and his descendants of the Ascanian House, then made considerable progress in Christianizing and Germanizing the lands. As a borderland between German and Slavic cultures, the country was known as the March of Brandenburg at this time. In 1320 the Brandenburg Ascanian line came to an end.

He was the father of Albert the Bear, the first margrave of Brandenburg. Otto was the eldest son of Adalbert II, Count of Ballenstedt and Adelheid, daughter of Otto I, Margrave of Meissen. After the death of his father-in-law, Magnus, Duke of Saxony, in 1106, Otto inherited a significant part of Magnus' properties, and hoped to succeed him as duke. However, Lothar of Supplinburg was named duke in his stead. In 1112, after Lothar had been banned, Otto was appointed duke of Saxony by Emperor Henry V; but in the same year, he came into a dispute with the emperor and was stripped of his ducal title. He now allied himself with Lothar, and helped Lothar defeat Hoyer I, Count of Mansfeld, who had been named duke of Saxony by the Emperor, in 1115. Otto conquered the areas around Zerbst and Salzwedel from Slavs, and maintained Lothar's support once Lothar became king in 1125. He also claimed the County of Weimar-Orlamünde, of which his mother was the heir. [edit] Family Otto married Eilica, daughter of Magnus, Duke of Saxony, before 1095.

| 135 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johan_Friis Johan Friis (20 February 1494 - 5 December 1570) was a Danish statesman. He was born in Lundbygaard, Sweden, and died in Koge, Denmark. He studied in Odense and in Copenhagen before completing his education abroad. Few among the ancient Danish nobility occupy so prominent a place in Danish history as Johan Friis, who exercised a decisive influence in the government of the realm during the reign of three kings. He was one of the first of the magnates to adhere to the Reformation and its promoter King Frederick I (1523-1533). Friis succeeded Claus Gjoodsen as imperial chancellor in 1532, and held that dignity till his death. During the ensuing interregnum he powerfully contributed, at the head of the nobles of Funen and Jutland, to the election of Christian III (1533-1559), but in the course of the Counts' War he was taken prisoner by Count Christopher, the Catholic candidate for the throne, and forced to do him homage. Subsequently by judicious bribery he contrived to escape to Germany, and from thence rejoined Christian III. He was one of the plenipotentiaries who concluded peace with Lübeck at the congress of Hamburg, and subsequently took an active part in the great work of national reconstruction necessitated by the Reformation, acting as mediator between the Danish and the German parties who were contesting for supremacy during the earlier years of Christian III. This he was able to do, as a moderate Lutheran, whose calmness and common sense contrasted advantageously with the unbridled violence of his contemporaries. As the first chancellor of the reconstructed university of Copenhagen, Friis took the keenest interest in spiritual and scientific matters, and was the first donor of a legacy to the institution. He also enjoyed the society of learned men, especially of those who could talk with him concerning ancient monuments and their history. He encouraged Hans Svaning to complete Saxo's history of Denmark ("Gesta Danorum"), and Anders Vedel to translate Saxo into Danish. His generosity to poor students was well known. Under King Frederick II (1559-1588), who understood but little of state affairs, Friis was well-nigh omnipotent. He was involved in the Scandinavian Seven Years' War (1563-70), which did so much to exacerbate the relations between Denmark and Sweden. Friis died on 5 December 1570, a few days before the peace of Stettin. http://skeel.info/getperson.php?personID=I1653&tree=ks Friis, Johan, 1494-1570, King's Chancellor. When eye looking back to the old Danish nobility in the prosperity of, there are not many figures who emerge more clearly from our view than the old Chancellor JF, for 3 kings Time was exerting decisive influence upon the Empire Board. He was born 20 Feb. 1494th His father was Jesper F. to Lundbygaard and Hesselagergård in Funen; mother was called Anne Brockenhuus. Early he lost his parents, however, he was put to school in Odense, and from he came next to Aarhus, where he for some years was under the renowned School Male Dr. Morten Børup 's Guide. F. commented in his old age often with gratitude for the good education he had received from this man, both in school and at home in his house. In 1514, he enrolled at Kjøbenhavns University. Later he went abroad. Among other learning seats he must have visited Paris, accompanied by M. Oluf Nielsen Some years then became the first evangelical preacher in Vejle. Johan Friis remained unmarried. Borreby Magleby parish, North Flakkebjerg township, Soro County A few kilometers south of Skaelskoer at a small inlet of the fjord lies the manor Borreby. In 1345 mentioned the farm first, then called the 'Burghby', originally the name of the village there on the spot. It was owned at that time by a nobleman Niels Jensen. In the end of the century belonged to the Low Nielsen urn, which in 1392 gave his son Zabel Kerkendorp deed to Borreby and Borreby stringers; 1410 sold all his goods to Roskilde Peder Jensen Lodehat. Borreby was thus a bispelen that during the Reformation fell to the crown, and about 1553 left Christian III it to his chancellor Johan Friis. Borrebys new owner was as a man in late 50s and stood as Denmark's real political leader. Like so many of his own class he had in his youth been given an excellent education - Copenhagen University, master's degree in Cologne, one and a half years in Rome - before he was hired as writing in Christiern II's chancellery. The young nobility proud men have gathered experience, but he has hardly sympathized with Christiern citizen kindness, and he saved himself quickly in Frederick I's chancellery at Gottorp, where he did not like to be and where he in private letters expressing his bold and candid opinion about the king, who, however, paid him well and the year before his death made him his chancellor. Then worked Johan Friis vigorously for Duke Christian's choice for king, but had the infamous accident during a visit to Nyborg, along with several companions able to be caught off guard by Count Christophers people. Via a Germany residence, where he met Luther and Melanchthon, he came back on the Christian side and stood finally after Copenhagen surrender in October 1536 as the Kingdom's leading personality. In the following years he built up Denmark's domestic and foreign policy and finances without forgetting his personal circumstances, such as the reconstruction of the ancestral farm Hesselagergård, but it is probably unfair, when Frederick II after his death left the family unravel 50,000 rdl to avoid process about his management of state funds. Johan Friis was no friend of Sweden. Deeply interested in his country and his family's history, as he was, he had appointed Hans Svaning the first Danish royal historiographer to lead Denmark story up to date by Saxo. As a Swedish historical work looking fierce, by Gustav Vasa inspired attacks on the Danes, sent Friis Svaning the fire with an answer. Later, when Denmark Frederik II and Sweden Erik XIV both had bellicose kings, Johan Friis, by requiring the inclusion of the three crowns in the Danish arms not without responsibility for the outbreak of war. Although he had not wanted hostilities, he put his usual energy into their implementation and providing state large loans only in 1563 10.000 rdl Also in the seven years of war, he continued with Peter ax its purposeful work with the Danish Home conditions, but the peace he experienced not. When he in 1570 had been on Nykøbing Castle to negotiate with Frederick II on the conditions, he was on the way home sick in Køge, where he died with his protege Anders Sørensen Vedel at his deathbed. Johan Friis had then, thanks to his good sense, his colossal work and its suppleness been chancellor for over a lifetime. His own class, he stood up well with, perhaps because he initially was reluctant at lens implementation of the reform, although he cool weighed State requirements with respect to the noble landowners. Later, when Peter ax and his brother Eskildsdatter had persuaded him to tighten lens policy, he let them off the hook and was simply off the herredag where the big showdown may take place, and the following year contorted Johan Friis no emotion when Peder ox forced by men's harsh judgment might seek in exile. Such a man was Borrebys new owner, in addition Borreby also owned his fathers farm Hesselagergård and Hagested farm near Holbaek. Johan Friis built, as evidenced by an inscription panel in Borrebys stair tower. (Danish Castles & Manor Houses) | FRIIS, Johan (I2113)

He was the son of Boles?aw I the Brave and Enmilda, daughter of Dobromir, Duke of Lusatia. Their children were Casimir I of Poland, Rixa of Poland, and Gertrude of Poland. Mieszko II was married to Richensa of Lotharingia (Rixa), the granddaughter of Otto II, Holy Roman Emperor. Mieszko II was very well educated for the period. He was able to read and write, and knew both Greek and Latin. He is unjustly known as Mieszko Gnus'ny (the "Lazy," "Stagnant" or "Slothful"). He received that epithet due to the unfortunate way his reign ended; but at the beginning he acted as a skillful and talented ruler. Before he became king in 1025, he probably served as his father's governor in Cracow, most likely from 1013, and reputedly built many churches. Beginning 1028, he successfully waged war against Germany: he was able to repel the German army, and later even invaded Saxony. He allied Poland with Hungary, resulting in a temporary Hungarian occupation of Vienna. This war was probably prompted by family connections of Mieszko's in Germany who opposed Emperor Conrad II. An understanding of what happened later requires an understanding of Mieszko's family. His older brother Bezprym was the son of an unknown Hungarian wife of Boles?aw's and was later expelled by Mieszko. He also had a younger brother, Otton. By Slavic custom, a father should divide his legacy among all his sons. However, since a kingdom cannot be divided, Mieszko's brothers received nothing from their father's legacy. As Bezprym was the oldest son, many probably felt that he should have succeeded his father as king. Bezprym had, however, always been disliked by his father, as indicated by his name (the Piasts tended to give names such as Boles?aw, Mieszko and later Kazimierz, W?adys?aw and emperors' names such as Otto, Conrad and Heinrich: Bezprym was a commoner's name, which implied that Boles?aw did not wish Bezprym to succeed him). He was packed off to a monastery. Mieszko's two brothers escaped abroad: Otton to Germany, Bezprym to Kievan Rus. Soon after, the German emperor and the grand duke of Kiev, Yaroslav I the Wise, made alliance and simultaneously invaded Poland. Facing two enemies, Germany on the west and Rus on the east, Mieszko escaped to Bohemia, where he seems[citation needed] to have been castrated. Bezprym began his reign by sending his crown and regalia to Germany. Mieszko soon returned, but was forced to pledge fealty to the German Emperor, and Poland was divided among him, his brothers Otton and Bezprym, and a certain Thiedric (probably a nephew or cousin). Otton was killed by one of his own men, and Mieszko was able to reunite Poland. What happened next is a mystery. Historians now think that Mieszko was killed (1034) in a plot hatched by the aristocracy. After Mieszko's death, Poland's peasants revolted in a "pagan reaction." The exact reasons and date are unknown. Mieszko's son, Casimir I, was either expelled by this insurrection, or the insurrection was caused by the aristocracy's expulsion of him. Modern historians argue that the insurrection was less likely caused by religious than by economic matters (huge new taxes for the Church, the militarization of the early Polish dukedom/kingdom — almost all the male population were drafted into the army — etc.). Priests, monks and knights were killed; cities, churches and monasteries were burned. The chaos became still greater when unexpectedly the Czechs invaded from the south. The land became divided among local rulers, one of whom is known by name: Mas?aw, ruler of Masovia. Greater Poland was so devastated that it ceased to be the core of the Polish kingdom.

| 137 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Kaas Niels Kaas (1535 - 29 June 1594) was a Danish politician who served as Chancellor of Denmark from 1573 until his death. He was influential in the negotiation of the Peace of Stettin and in the upbringing of Christian IV. Kaas also played an important role in the emancipation of Schleswig-Holstein. Life and career Kaas belonged to a noble family. His parents were Niels, who died seven months before he was born, and Anne Bjørn, who died when he was five. As a result, Kaas was raised by his uncle Mogens Kaas, the dean of the district of Jelling, and later cantor of Ribe Chapel.[1] He was educated at the Viborg school, where he studied for nine years, concentrating on theology and classical studies. In 1549, Kaas moved to Copenhagen, where he was taken in by theologian Niels Hemmingsen under the direction of his brother Bjørn. Under Hemmingsen, he completed his theological, Latin, and historical training. In 1554, Kaas began studying under Philipp Melanchthon in Wittenberg. He also studied in Frankfurt and Leuven, and saw the Battle of St. Quentin in 1557.[2] He returned to Copenhagen in 1557, entering the Danish Chancery three years later. His knowledge of history and Latin became invaluable in negotiations with other countries. During the Northern Seven Years' War, Kaas remained in Copenhagen and helped negotiate with Sweden in Roskilde. In 1570, he helped complete the Peace of Stettin.[3] After the death of Chancellor Johan Friis in December 1570, Kaas was appointed Chancellor by the Herredag (lords of the realm) in May 1573. In 1575, he became the second-most powerful person in the country on the death of the Steward of the Realm, Peder Oxe. Frederick II greatly relied on Kaas's negotiating skills. As chancellor, Kaas helped solve the question of succession for John II, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Haderslev and John II, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg in 1582.[3] He also served as the Chancellor of the University of Copenhagen, and under his leadership the university created its first professorship in history. Many of his writings survive from this time. He took special interest in the research of astronomy under Tycho Brahe, and of history in general.[4] Christian IV receiving the keys of government from Kaas Upon the death of Frederick II in 1588, Kaas became the guardian of government. During this time, he dealt with many issues, such as the influence wielded by the dowager queen Sophia and her father Duke Ulrich III of Mecklenburg-Güstrow. Kaas was a supporter of the two, but the Folketing opposed their influence and sought to limit it.[5] In 1593, Kaas helped emancipate the duchies of Schleswig-Holstein from the Holy Roman Empire and secure the rule over them of Frederick's successor, Christian IV. On his deathbed in 1594, Kaas called Christian IV in order to advise him on government, saying: Your grace Lord Father, holy remembrance, I promised to his utmost, that I with all power, counsel and faithfulness should ensure that the crown came upon your head. But now prevents death me therein upon the will of God, yet I will do what I can, and provide therefore the honor of your Grace's own hands the key to the vault, where the crown, scepter, sword and orb since his death, having been bestowed. Take therefore the kingdom treasures of God himself, bears the crown with Price and glory reigns spire with wisdom and grace, bring the sword of justice and power and keeps the apple lay with counsel and prudence. God bless the king! Farewell king, farewell kingdoms and lands, father surely all the world! Come, O Jesus, if you will, now I die happy. -Niels Kaas, Bricka 1895, p. 70 http://medievaldanishfamilies.blogspot.com/2009/08/family-kaasdansk-biografisk-lexicon.html Kaas, Niels, 1535-94,of Tårupgård , the king's kansler, youngest brother of Bjørn,Jens and Jørgen Kaas. Niels was born at Stårupgård in Viborg Stift. He was named after his father Niels Kaas (the Sparre-Kaas family with a chevron in coat of arms), who died 7 months before his birth; his mother Anne Bjørnsdatter Bjørn died, when he was 5 years old. His father's brother Mogens Kaas of Tårupgård, who was an accountant-rural dean in Jelling Syssel and later was cantor in Ribe chapter, took the role as a father for the orphant boy and sent him to a Viborg school, which was managed by principal Oluf Nielsen Skytte, whom Niels Kaas always later showed much gratitude for the guidance in learning and good behaviour, he had given him in his youth. After nine year at the school he had learned what schools could present at that time, namely besides a thorough religious knowledge, a good portion of Latin, some Greek and some dialectic and rhetoric rules. With this learning he was sent to Copenhagen in 1549, where he by his elder brother Bjørn Kaas, who was his guardian after his uncle's death, was placed in the house of Dr. Niels Hemmingsen , who had many other noble and civil boarders. Under his guidance Niels Kaas' excellent inborn talents were developed. Niels Hemmingsen praised him and predicted that he would become a very special man. His learning extended,he had theology, world's history and Danish history, ethnic and legal studies. He kept during his life a friendship with his old teacher, also when odds were against Niels Hemmingsen at the highest places and he had much bad luck. After 4 year's stay in Hemmingsen's house N.K wanted to go to schools abroad. But first he made a visit to his home in Jutland, where he after his uncle's death probably was the owner of Tårupgård. During the travel to Lybeck the ship was wrecked at Femern's coast and he saved his life with dificulty. In May 1554 he was immatriculated at Wittenberg, where he became one of Melanchtons most diligent listeners. Also here he drew attention caused by his excellent gifts. He later studied in Frankfurt a.d. Oder and in Løwen.(Louvain) At the last place, where he stayed for a long time , he visited the front, when the French and Spanish armies fought at St. Quentin.(1557) He finally returned to Denmark, richer equipped with learning than most contemporary noblemen. He especially had a knowledge in history and political science, which was not ordinary at that time, and skills in speaking Latin, which was of importance then for those who wanted higher offices within the State, especially when it came to negotiations with foreign countries. Not long after his homecoming he was engaged in the chancellery, and here he was soon noticed for his business talents; he was entrusted with important offices, especially during the Nordic Seven Year-War, when the king on his travels took with him kansler Johan Friis and first secretary Hans Skovgård; and while they were away, Niels Kaas took care of the part of the chancellery which was in Copenhagen. In 1568 and 69 he participated in the futile peace-negotiations with the Swedes in Roskilde and at the country-border at Ulfsbæk. In 1570 he and the two rigsråds Peder Bille and Jørgen Rosenkrantz were the Danish Government's representatives at the close of the peace in Stettin like at the negotiation with Sweden at Brømsebro in 1572. After Johan Friis' death in 1570 Niels Kaas functioned as the king's kansler, until he at the Herredag in May 1573 finally was appointed to this important and responsible office, in which he, at least after rigshofmester Peder Oxe's death (1575) became the first man of the kingdom next to the king. A part of his pay was St. Knuds kloster in Odense, besides he had some lesser vasalries (Knubbelykke birk at Lolland and Rynkeby at Fyn) plus Præbender (income) in Roskilde and Viborg chapters. In 1577 he also got Asmild kloster. During many years as a kansler he was known to be an honest and capable statesman. Frederik II appreciated him and liked him around. The king was sometimes difficult to associate with, but N.K most often understood with careful cleverness to make him understand what was best for the country/countries. He was both mild and firm, which made him able to lead difficult negotiations to a good result, i.e. in the long- lasting lensstridigheder (feuds about vasalry) of Schleswig. (1579,a question about succession after hertug Hans den Ældre (1581) and the division with hertug Hans den Yngre (1582) As the king's kansler N.K. was also the kansler of the University or the "top Konservator", an office where his love for science made him perfect. Writers dedicated their writings to him, which showed their trust in him. He participated in Tyge Brahe's and Anders Vedel's scientific work. And he loved history. Jakob Ulfeldt wrote about him that he had such a memory and knowledge about history that he could be compared to the best among historians. He corresponded wih the learned Dr. David Chytræus in Rostock who worked with the history of Norden (Scandinavia). He was attentive to the importance of history and meant that statesmen and the rulers had to value it and learn from it. It was due to him that a history teacher (Dr. Niels Krag) for the first time was appointed at the University of Copenhagen. The last 6 years of Niels Kaas' life demanded more cleverness, patriotism and work than at any other point of his life. When he stood at Frederik II's deathbed (4 april 1588) he promised the dying king to take care of his surviving relatives, and he was probably willing to do so, but later it was obvious that it was not that easy to unite the consideration of respect to the royals and the care for the country, which had to be his first task, especially after the whole rigsråd 15 april 1588 handed over to him and three other men of its middle to lead the government, as long as the elected prince Christian (IV) was underage; it must be considered a pay to NK's increased work that he at the same time was endowed with Lekkende and later (1592) also with Thistedgård. But he had to fight large difficulties, it was said that NK personally might have wanted queen dowager Sophie given a role in the government of the kingdoms, but the rigsråd wanted it in another way, and there were many embarrassing negotiations with the queen and her father, hertug Ulrik of Mecklenburg, negotiations, which probably hurt a mild personality like Niels Kaas, but during which he showed unshakably firmness considering what was best for the country and the elected king. Some historians (i.e. G.L. Baden) has made the queen dowager's exclusion from the government into a strong accusation against the oligarks in all and NK especially. There were complaints that the elected king was kept from an independent rule even after he in 1593 by the emperor was declared of age in hertugdømmerne. Here were also difficulties to solve. All in all, the politics NK chose was true Danish, moderate and cautious, as little provocing to foreign countries as possible and careful as to people's ability to pay taxes. (...) In short: His good name and reputations was known not only among Danes but also in foreign countries. (...) It seems that the stressing job as a kansler, and the embarassing feuds with the queen dowager were the reasons that he aged too soon. He had felt weak for some time, but still in the spring of 1594 he led the negotiations of the rigsråd, but at midsummer he knew he was about to die. He sent for the priest at Nicolai kirke, Mester Isak Grønbæk. (...) A few days before his death the young elected king came to him, the other members of the rigsråd were present. Niels Kaas gave the young king various advice, he especially asked him to take care of the navy,which was the most important in the defense of the kingdom; he told him, which states and neighbours would be the best friends, and he gave him a short general view over the existing unions and agreements with foreign countries.(...) He finally gave him the keys to the archive and the Crown jewels and told him that he had promised his late father that he would see to that his son was crowned. (...) But since he now gave him the keys of the kingdom, the young elected king had himself the crown and the other royal insignias. (...) (It is impossible to translate his whole speech, it is too old-fashioned) Niels Kaas died 29 June 1594, 60 years of age.His funeral service took place at 28 July in Vor Frue kirke (Domkirke) in Copenhagen; the bishop of Sjælland P.V.Vinstrrup held a preach over him.(...) After the funeral service Niels Kaas' body was brought to Viborg domkirke to be buried there. (...) Rørdam, Kbvns universitets Hist. 1537-1621 II. T. Lund, Christian IV's ship at Skanderborg Sø.

Rurik, prince of Novogorod, is considered the founder of the dynasty that ruled Kievan Rus and Muscovy until 1598. Alexander Agamov, expressing current Russian thinking, doesn't think that Rurik stayes too long in Novgorod, but immediately went to Kiev, because Novgorod & Kiev were bitter enemies, and it was not likely that Rurik would make such a transition after establishing himself in Novgorod. Many Russians doubt the existence of Rurik, and trace the ancestry of Igor, whose existence and descents are well founded.6,3,7,2 !AInfoNew* 840 From: Brynjulf Langballe (b-lan@online.no) Subject: Re: Rurik Newsgroups: soc.genealogy.medieval Date: 2000/09/21 Rurik was very likely son of Bjørn Ironside who was son of Ragnar Lodbrok. Ragnar was king in the area called Denmark in his time. This was an area that for hundred of years had covered present Denmark, western Sweden and the south east of Norway. Ragnar conquered Sweden, Finland and parts of Russia probably in 832. Later he sat his son Whiteserk in rule of Russia after a second campagne which frightened Byzants. After 850 Whiteserk was killed in Russia and Ragnar made a third campagne. Bjørn Ironside was set to rule both Sweden and Russia. But in 862 he was killed in a battle in Frisia. The same year the Nestor Chronicle is saying Rusia was in lack of a king and asked (his son) Rurik to come. The place Rurik come from is said to be Sweden, Jutland or Frisia. His father was king in Sweden. When Saxo is saying Jutland this is Gothland (Gøtaland) in Sweden. Rurik very well could have followed his father to Frisia as well, and therefor where coming physicly from there. Something confusing the understanding of this is another Rurik in Frisia at the same time. He was son of king Ali (Anulo) of Haithabu and was king in Dorestadt 826-833 and was in the service of the Franks from 850 to 882. The bear attribute of Russia seems to come from the name of Rurik's father, Bjørn, which is bear in Scandinavian language.

| 142 | http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~corpusnobiliorum/0000014.html Skjalm Hvide: The DBL states the following regarding Skjalm: Died about 1113, buried Fjenneslev church, Denmark. Following a far more recent genealogy S.H. is said to be the son of Toke Trylle, in which case he belonged to a powerful family of Sjaelland and owned estates across that island, though especially around Sorö. S.H. was for a long period Jarl [Earl -trans.] of Sjaelland, perhaps as early as 1062 when he followed King Sven II Estridsen in the struggle against Harald Hårdråde at Niså. Saxo [Saxo Grammaticus, a near-contemporary chronicler based at Bremen and one of the main sources for this period of Danish history. -trans.] comments particularly on S.H.'s man Aslak's bravery in the battle. Regarding S.H. himself Saxo tells us that he after a bold fight wsa wounded and taken prisoner, though he escaped at Gedesö. The next mention Saxo makes of him is towards the end of the century perhaps during the reign of Olof Hunger, when his brother Avte, being on his was from Sjaelland to Falster was attacked and killed by Wendish vikings. As revenge Skjalm raised and army on Sjaelland (Saxo marvelled at this being done without consent of the King), travelled to Julin (or Jomsborg) and forced the populace to surrender the guilty parties, which were killed under gruesome circumstances. S.H. might have participated when Erik I The Good began his victorious campaign against the Wends. After the conquest of Rügen Skjalm was appointed Chief of that island. When King Erik and Queen Bodil set off on their pilgrimage in 1102 they left their son Knut under the protection of Skjalm. A few years later the young prince was sent to Duke Lothar of Saxony. It must be supposed that S.H. died at an advanced age. He was buried at the church by his main estate at Fjaldenslev (now Fjenneslev). He was later translated by his grandson Absalon to Sorö. Hvide, Skjalm, -1102-, Høvding, hørte til en mægtig sjællandskStormandsæt. Som hans Fader nævner en sen Overlevering Toke Trylle;stridende mod Saxos Ord og i sig selv værdiløs er Paastanden om ÆttensNedstammen fra Sagnhelten Palnatoke. S. H. havde Ejendomme vidtomkring paa Sjælland, fremfor alt i Sorøegnen. Tidlig har han faaetdet Hverv at være sin Fødeøs Jarl. Som saadan fulgte han SvendEstridsen til Kampen mod Harald Haardraade i Nisaa (1062), hvor han kæmpede tappert, men daSejeren hældede til Nordmændenes Side, blev han saaret og taget tilFange; ved Gedesø lykkedes det ham imidlertid at slippe fra sineBevogtere. Nu hører man ikke noget om ham før i Oluf Hungers Kongetid.Under de daværende opløste Forhold blev hans Broder Aute paa Vejen fraSjælland til Falster overrasket og fældet af vendiske Sørøvere. Udenat ty til Kongens Hjælp samlede S. H. da paa egen Haand en sjællandsk Hær, drog til Julin ogtvang Indbyggerne til at udlevere de skyldige, der bleve dræbte underde grusomste Pinsler. Da Erik Ejegod begyndte sine sejerrige Tog modVenderne, har S. H. staaet ved hans Side. Efter Rygens Erobring blev han sat til Høvding over denne Ø. Da Kong Erik ogDronning Bodil droge ud paa deres store Pilgrimsfærd (1102), overlodede deres lille Søn Knud til S. H.s Varetægt; han blev saaledesFosterfader for en af Danmarks berømteste Mænd, For øvrigt sendte hannogle Aar efter den unge Kongesøn til Hertug Lothar af Sachsen, og deter tvivlsomt, om han senere har set sin Fostersøn. S. H. maa være dødo. 1113, i høj Alder. Han blev begravet i Fjenneslev Kirke, der har hørt til hans Hovedgaard.Senere blev hans Lig af Sønnesønnen Absalon flyttet til Sorø. -- SomS. H. havde været Danmarks mægtigste Høvding, blev han ogsaa Stamfadertil den mægtigste Stormandsæt, der nogen Sinde har levet blandt de danske. Allerede hans 4 Sønner, Toke, Sune, Ebbeog Asser Rig, vare ansete Høvdinger, og fra de 2 sidste nedstammemange af vore ypperste Mænd, fremfor alle Absalon,. Esbern Snare ogAnders Sunesen. Langt mere end nogen som helst anden Æt have S. H.sEfterkommere hævet Danmark, saa længe de virkede sammen med Kongerne;men da Venskabet forvandledes til Fjendskab, voldte «Hvide-Ætten»ogsaa de største Ulykker over Folk og Land. -- Foruden Sønnerne havde S. H. 2 Døtre:Cæcilia ægtede Peder Thorstensen paa Borg ved Sorø;Margrethe blevogsaa gift, uvist med hvem, men tilbragte sin Enkestand i RoskildeNonnekloster. | HVIDE, Skjalm (I343)

Claus Pavels (8 January 1769 - 16 February 1822) was a Norwegian priest and diarist. His diaries from 1812-1822[1] are an important source for cultural and biographical history.[2] Contents * 1 Biography * 2 University * 3 Politics in 1814 * 4 References Biography He was born in Vanse.[3] His father, a priest at Lista, died four months before Pavel's birth, and the boy grew up at his uncle's farm on Lista.[4] He graduated from Christanssand school in 1785. He was a student in Copenhagen and member of The Norwegian Society there. He was a chaplain in Brevig from 1793 to 1796,[5] priest in Copenhagen from 1799, a vicar at Aker and a priest at the Akershus Fortress from 1805, and became bishop of the diocese of Bjørgvin in 1817. In 1799 he married Maren Fasland. The couple had two daughters. Their daughter Karen married Johan Lyder Brun, Sr.,[3] a grandson of Johan Nordahl Brun,[6] who preceded Pavels as bishop of Bjørgvin.[7] He was the grandfather of the author Claus Pavels Riis Career Pavels was hired as a chaplain in Brevig in Telemark county from 1793 to 1796.[8] He next was called to be the priest in Hirschholm in Denmark from 1796 until 1799. From 1799 to 1805 he was a chaplain for the Nikolai parish in Copenhagen. In 1805, Pavels was given a new job in the Norwegian capital of Christiania. He was called to be the vicar of the parish of Aker as well as the priest serving Akershus Fortress. He served in that post until 1817 when he was named the Bishop of the Diocese of Bjørgvin. He remained at this post until his death on 16 February 1822. University Pavels was host of the ceremony when the first Norwegian university, the Royal Frederick University of Christiania, was founded in 1811.[4] The ceremony took place at Akershus Fortress 11 November 1811, with music, military parades, bell ringing and guns salute, and people gathering in the Fortress Church.[4] Pavels was also present at the first defence of a doctorate thesis in Norway, at the University 18 June 1817, when Frederik Holst defended his thesis, "Morbus, quem Radesyge vocant, quinam sit, quanamque ratione e Scandinavia tollendus".[1][8] Pavel's diary contains a detailed report from the ceremonious event. There were 13 opponents, and the language used was Latin. The thesis was not translated into Norwegian until 188 years later, and the book from 2005 contains also Pavel's diary comments.[8] [edit] Politics in 1814 From his position at Akershus Fortress, Pavels followed closely the political turbulence in 1814, with the Treaty of Kiel, the gathering of the Constituent Assembly at Eidsvoll, the clash between Sweden and Norway, and the subsequent Union between Sweden and Norway. He wrote detailed reports from this period in his diaries.[1] [edit] References 1. ^ a b c Claus Pavels (1812-1822).

One wing had a chimney for the laundry room and bake oven. After Marschalck's death in 1679 the widow kept Sanne with support ing estate until she died in 1698. Subsequently, the farm was inherited by Jens BIELKE's grandaughter, Sophie Amalie Rosenkrantz. She was from her other marriage to T¯nne HUITFELDT who owned Tronstad, ElingÂrd and Tomb. Sophie died in 1711, an d her son, Henrik J¯rgen HUITFELDT took over the estate. After his death, Sanne was out of the BIELKE family. !NOTE: Lt. general Henrik J¯rgen HUITFELDT had three nobility mountain farms. There was ElingÂrd, Kj¯lberg and Sanne. His business idea was to keep them as tax-exempt mountain farms. Simultaneously he held the farm in good condition and was occu pied with sawmill operations. Huitfeldt additionally was an able military man and had contributed in the large Nordic wars. After the peace he was active in developing sawmill operations near Sanne. He asked permission from the King to expand significantly and build more saw mills. In an application/petition point he said that everything had been postponed due to the war against Carl XII. He also had to pay large amounts to resolve inheritance disputes when he took over Sanne. HUITFELDT argued that the sawmills cou ld utilize lumber both from *sterdalen and his own forests near Sanne. But authorities were very much skeptical when it considered timber purchases in ÿsterdalen, because sawmills in Fredrikstad and Christiania had copyright to purchases from here . HUITFELDT was not accustomed to losing in his attempt to expand sawmill operations and traveled therefore in 1727 to the king in K¯benhavn to promote his plan directly to him, like farmers now and then did when they complained about their yea rly taxes. He pointed out the flood damage, and that the arable land was deteriorated. But the high gentleman let himself not be swayed, and the lawsuit documents were forwarded to the sawmill commission in Christiania. He had to therefore liv e with the operations he had. !NOTE: Henrik J¯rgen HUITFELDT died in 1751, and the heirs sold property (real estate) out of the family. BIOGRAPHY: At ElingÂrd hangs this portrait of Lt. General Henrik J¯rgen HUITFELDT. As mentioned on p. 282, there were troops under the leadership of HUITFELDT that captured Moss 24 April 1716 after General MÊrner had occupied the town some days . Henrik J¯rgen HUITFELDT was born at Fredriksten fortress in 1674. He was the son of Brigadier Colonel T¯nne HUITFELDT and Sofie Amalie Rosenkrantz. His brother, the famous commander Iver HUITFELDT, was slain on the ship ¥Dannebrog(tm) in a nava l action against the Swedes at K¯ge bay in 1710. In 1707, Henrik J¯rgen HUITFELDT wed Sofie Pulz. She died in 1711. Through the marriage with Sofie Pulz , HUITFELDT became the owner of both ElingÂrd and Kj¯lberg. He also owned the farm, Sand e in Tune. HUITFELDT's second wife was Birgitte Christine Kaas (see. p. 128).. This marriage was in 1713, a short time after HUITFELDT had became lieutenant colonel in the infantry. Already in 1691, he advanced from corporal in BIELKE's gevorbn e infantry regiment to lieutenant commander in Western Jarlslfergske company under SmÂlenske national infantry regiment. When he was a Lt. he was among others in the French service, and became hard wounded in a battle at Barcelona in Spain in 169 7. A fundamental feature in his succeeding military career, can be mentioned that in the reorganization of the army in 1718 HUITFELDT became a Lieutenant Colonel for (ÿstro) SmÂlenske national infantry regiment and head of 2nd Ons¯yske compan y until 1730. He was a Brigadier Colonel then in 1727 became head for the 1st (ÿstro) SmÂleJiske national infantry regiment, a position he held until his death at Eling=rd, 16 May 1751. His last company was in the years 1731-1751 (1.) Ons¯yske company. HUITFELDT's military grades after 1727 were: Brigadier in 1730, Major General in 1734 and finally Lt. General in 1746.

This family ( named Sparre-Kaas) can be traced back to ridder Niels Lændi/Lendi (1292, + bef. 1314), whose son Jens Nielsen of Kaas by Limfjorden (1298?,1325) was great-great-grandfather of rigsråd, landsdommer Niels Kaas (1466,1471) of Kaas and Taarupgård. One of his children Gertrud Kaas brought by marriage the name Kaas to Mogens Thomsen (+1521) of Damsgård, and this second Kaas-family had a wall (mur) in their coat of arms. ( named Mur-Kaas.)Niels Kaas' sons were: bishop in Viborg, magistre ErikKaas (+ 1520), Niels Kaas (+ bef.1515) of Ørndrup and Jens Kaas (1477 , 1519) of Taarupgård, whose grandsons were rigsråd Bjørn Kaas (+1581) of Staarupgård etc. , Jens Kaas (1516-78) of Gudumlund and Voergård, kansler Niels Kaas (1534-94) of Taarupgård and Skovsgård and Erik Kaas (+1578) of Støvringgård and Lindbjerggård, whose son was rigsråd, ridder Mogens Kaas (1576-1656) of Støvringgård etc. | KAAS, Niels (I1102)

When a third brother Jørgen Kaas, caused by a crowd in the city Lüneburg, had committed a kill in 1552, he was executed in the same city, although king Christian III interceded for him ; the two brothers declared open war against the city,and now it was the city, who had to ask the king for help, so that he could admonish the brothers to keep a peace. Jens Kaas soon returned to his homeland, for in 1555-58 he was a vasal at Viskum len.(vasalry) When the war with Sweden approached, Jens Kaas was sent out to recruit lansquenets,but soon his experience in warfare and his skills had a far more important use, since he was entrusted with the important border fortification Elsfborg which the Swedes had taken in 1564. It was a very difficult task; the castle was ramshackled and with too few people, provisions and munitions; furthermore were often mutinies among the lansquenets, who quarrelled over lack of pay; but Jens Kaas showed equal to the task, and in spite of all efforts, the enemy did not succeed in taking back Elfsborg. Hans Skovgård wrote already in 1565 to hr. Mogens Gyldenstierne: "I sandhed Jens Kaas gjør som en god Karl, man burde ikke at forlade ham". (meaning that Jens Kaas should have all the assistance he could get; he did his task so well). So they succeeded in relieving him before it was too late. Not until November 1569 left Jens Kaas Elfsborg; he then had become the leader of all the lansquenets, and in the end of the war he led some expeditions into Sweden. The last years of his life he spent in quiet. In 1567 he had got a lensbrev (vasalry) at Gudumlund, which he in 1573 bought from the Crown; besides he owned Vorgård in Hellum herred, which his mother's niece fru Anne Bjørn had willed to him , and which his brother Bjørn inherited after him. He had some large vasalries too; Silkeborg 1573-77 and Aalborghus from 1577 until his death, 14. December 1578. Jens Kaas lived in a childless marriage with Margrethe Lange, a sister of the alchymist Erik Lange. She married Knud Brahe 1584, and died in 1622.

In 1713, she married Lieutenant-colonel Henrik Jørgen Huitfeldt (1674-1751) and moved back to Elingaard, which her father had sold, but which her husband had inherited after his first marriage. She lived there until her death. Birgitte Christine Kaas's handwritten poems were lost in an annihilating fire in 1746 when Elingaard was burned to the ground. In Nogle Aandelige Psalmer, Oversatte udaf det Tydske Sprog paa Dansk af den, Som inderlig begiærer at have udi sit Hierte Bestandig Christi Kierlighed the author's name is concealed in the first letters of the last three words. The book, which was printed in Copenhagen in 1734, contains twenty-eight translations of German hymns, chiefly written by female authors. !NOTE: Henrik J¯rgen HUITFELDT's 1st wife died merely 21 ye ars old, and his second wife was Birgitte Christine Kaas . She was born at ElingÂrd in 1682 and was the daughter o f county magistrate Hans Kaas and Sophie Amalie BIELKE. Sh e was a rigorous lady and became therefore gladly called "G eneral Birthe". In her husband's absence, she ran the far m and estate with a firm hand. She had a good education a n d mastered more than one language. She both composed an d wrote poems. She had consequently a distinct intellectua l side and could thus compare favorably with the wives at f or example; Hafslund and BorregÂrd.

King Christian VI visited Norway in 1733 wit h a large group of people. The king's mother-in-law, Marqu ise of Bayreuth, was also visiting. She urged Birgitte Chr istine to use her poetic abilities to "Rais e religion". Th e year after she therefore wrote 28 hymns that were inter preted from German. The collection is named "Nogle spiritu al Psalms", and the two most famous are, "S¯rg o' kjÊre Fad er" and "Se solens skj¯nne lys og prakt".
