| 202 | Louis the Pious From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Partial article Louis the Pious (also known as Louis I, Louis the Fair, and Louis the Debonaire, German: Ludwig der Fromme, French: Louis le Pieux or Louis le Débonnaire, Italian: Luigi il Pio or Ludovico il Pio, Spanish: Luis el Piadoso or Ludovico Pío) (16 April 778 – 20 June 840) was Emperor and King of the Franks from 814 to his death 840. Rule in Aquitaine Born in Chasseneuil, in today's Gironde, France, on 16 April 778, the third son of Charlemagne by his third wife, Hildegard, Louis was crowned king of Aquitaine as a child in 781 and sent there with regents and a court to rule in order to quiet rebellions which were forming after Charlemagne's defeat by the Moors in Spain (778). Charlemagne's intention was to see his all sons brought up as natives of their given territories, wearing the national costume of the region and ruling by the local customs. Thus were the children sent to their respective realms at so young an age. Each kingdom had its importance in keeping some frontier, Louis's was the Spanish March. In 797, Barcelona, the greatest city of the Marca, fell to the Franks when Zeid, its governor, rebelled against Córdoba and, failing, handed it to them. The Umayyad authority recaptured it in 799. However, Louis marched the entire army of his kingdom over the Pyrenees and besieged it for two years, wintering there from 800 to 801, when it capitulated. The sons were not given independence from central authority, however, and Charlemagne ingrained in them the concepts of empire and unity by sending them on military expeditions far from their home bases. Louis campaigned in the Mezzogiorno against the Beneventans at least once. Louis was one of Charlemagne's four legitimate sons, but the eldest, Pepin the Hunchback, had consented to a rebellion against his father and was banished to a monastery. That left three in active life and, like most Frankish men, Louis had expected to share his inheritance with his brothers, Charles the Younger, king in Neustria, and Pepin, king of Italy. In the Divisio Regnorum of 806, Charlemagne had slated Charles the Younger as his successor as emperor and chief king, ruling over the Frankish heartland of Neustria and Austrasia, while giving Pepin the Iron Crown of Lombardy, which Charlemagne possessed by conquest. To Louis's kingdom of Aquitaine, he added Septimania, Provence, and part of Burgundy. But in the event, Charlemagne's other legitimate sons died — Pepin in 810 and Charles in 811 — and Louis alone remained to be crowned co-emperor with Charlemagne in 813. On his father's death in 814, he inherited the entire Frankish kingdom and all its possessions (with the sole exception of Italy, which remained within Louis' empire, but under the direct rule of Bernard, Pepin's son). Death Louis fell ill soon after his final victorious campaigns and went to his summer hunting lodge on an island in the Rhine, by his palace at Ingelheim. On 20 June 840, he died, in the presence of many bishops and clerics and in the arms of his brother Drogo, but not of Charles and Judith, who were in Poitiers. Soon dispute plunged the surviving brothers into a civil war that was only settled in 843 by the Treaty of Verdun, which split the Frankish realm into three parts, the kernels of later France and Germany. The dispute over the kingship of Aquitaine was not fully settled until 860. [edit] Family By his first wife, Ermengarde of Hesbaye (married 794, 795, or 798), he had three sons and three daughters: * Lothair (795 – 855), king of Middle Francia * Pepin (797 – 838), king of Aquitaine * Adelaide (b. c. 799), perhaps married Robert the Strong * Rotrude (b. 800) * Hildegard (or Matilda) (b. c. 802), married Gerard, count of Auvergne * Louis the German (c. 805 – 875), king of East Francia By his second wife, Judith of Bavaria, he had a daughter and a son: * Gisela, married Eberhard I of Friuli * Charles the Bald, king of West Francia He may have had two illegitimate children: Arnulf of Sens and Alpais. | I, the Debonnaire Kaiser Louis (I1194)

| 203 | Luitpold, Margrave of Bavaria From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Luitpold, Duke of Bavaria) Jump to: navigation, search Luitpold or Liutpold (modern Leopold) (died 4 July 907), perhaps of the Huosi family or related to the Carolingians, was the father of the great Luitpolding dynasty which dominated Bavaria and Carinthia until the mid-tenth century. In 893, Luitpold was created margrave of Carinthia and Upper Pannonia by the Emperor Arnulf. He soon acquired counties on the Danube and in the Nordgau, even getting Regensburg around 895, and thereby setting himself up as the most prominent of Bavaria's aristocracy. He was a loyal friend of the Carolingian monarchs and enjoyed their support. He was entrusted with defence of the Hungarian and Moravian borders. In 898, he fought successfully against Mojmír II, king of Great Moravia, on behalf of the rebel Svatopluk II and forced Mojmír to become a vassal of Arnulf. In 903, he had the title dux Boemanorum, "duke of Bohemia." On 4 July 907, Luitpold died in battle at Pressburg, modern Bratislava. Luitpold married Cunigunda, daughter of Berthold I, Count Palatine of Swabia, and sister of Erchanger, Duke of Swabia, an Ahalolfinger. Cunigunda later married Conrad I of Germany in 913. Luitpold had two sons by her, however: Arnulf the Bad and Eberhard, both later dukes of Bavaria. From his descendants titles, Luitpold is often called a duke of Bavaria or margrave of Bavaria, the latter title being more accurate to his actual status. | NORDGAU, Luitpold Markgreve af (I1187)

| 204 | Magnus, Duke of Saxony From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Magnus (c. 1045–23 August 1106) was the duke of Saxony from 1072 to 1106. Eldest son and successor of Ordulf and Wulfhild, a princess of Norway, he was the last member of the House of Billung. In 1070, before he was duke, he joined Otto of Nordheim, duke of Bavaria, in rebellion against the Salian Emperor Henry IV. Otto was accused of being privy to a plot to murder the king, and it was decided he should submit to the ordeal of battle with his accuser. The duke asked for a safe-conduct to and from the place of meeting, and when this was refused he declined to appear, and was consequently deprived of Bavaria, while his Saxon estates were plundered. The rebellion lasted until it was put down in 1071 and Magnus was captured. Magnus was put up in the castle of Harzburg, the imposing imperial fortress which so inflamed the Saxon freemen. He was not released upon his accession to the Saxon duchy until seventy Swabians captured in Lüneburg were released. In 1073, Harzburg was destroyed and the anger of Henry aroused. He renewed the conflict with Saxony once more. At the First Battle of Langensalza in 1075, Magnus was captured again. Released again, he joined Rudolf von Rheinfeld, duke of Swabia and antiking, and was present at the Battle of Mellrichstadt (7 August 1078), where he saved Rudolf's life. However, he and the Saxons never fully supported the Swabian Rudolf and he reconciled with Henry, even fighting the Slavs with the royal forces. Magnus was an embittered enemy of the archbishop of Bremen, Adalbert, whose see he afflicted with repeated plundering raids. In 1106, the same year as Henry IV, he died. His duchy was given to Lothair of Supplinburg and his lands were split between his daughters by Sophia (married 1071), daughter of Béla I of Hungary, going thusly to the houses of Welf and Ascania, for Wulfhilde (1075 – 1126) married Duke Henry IX of Bavaria and Eilika (1080 – 16 January 1142) married Count Otto of Ballenstedt. | BILLUNG, Magnus Sachsen (I1176)

| 205 | Margaret Sambiria From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Margaret Sambiria Enlarge Margaret Sambiria Margaret Sambiria (1230?-1282) was the Queen consort of Christopher I of Denmark, and acted as regent for Eric V of Denmark. In Danish she is also known as Margrethe Sprænghest. She was born daughter of duke Sambor II of the ruling family of Slavic (Vendic) Cassubians and his wife Mechtild of Mecklenburg. They held a lordship (then treated as duchy or principality) of so-called Pomerelia, in regions of Gdansk in what later was known as west Prussia. Her birth is approximately in 1230. She was 1248 married to prince Christopher, the youngest son of Valdemar II of Denmark and Berengaria of Portugal. Her husband ascended the throne of Denmark in 1252 as Christopher I of Denmark by the then succession custom which followed so called agnatic seniority and Margaret was crowned together. Her husband died 29 May 1259 (rumoredly poisoned). Their son and heir Eric V of Denmark who succeeded was a minor and Margaret was made regent, in which position she continued until 1264. Eric's succession overrode rights of sons of earlier monarchs and was against the traditions of agnatic seniority. However, only such living were sons of king Abel, who had the fame of fratricide, murderer, and it was easier to dispossess them. King Christopher had all his reign made work to ensure his own line's succession. Although the accession of Eric led to serious rivalry for generations, Christopher's line was usually victorious and kept the kingship. She quarreled with lord Jakob Erlendsen and her husband's nephew Eric Abelson, as well as with counts of Holstein. After a loss in Lohede 1261 she together with her son the young king became imprisoned by Holsteins, but soon succeeded to liberty with help from Duke Albert of Brunswick. She took initiative. Margaret has a reputation of a very competent regent. Her nicknames "Spränghäst" and "Svarta Grete" are based on her strong will and energy. She died in December 1282 and was buried in a Cistercian Church in Bad Doberan on Germany's Baltic Sea coast. Margaret and Christopher had three children: * Matilda (died 1311), married to Albert III, margrave of Brandenburg * Margaret (died 1306), married count John II of Holstein-Kiel * Eric, the future king of Denmark (1249-1286). A never-ending rivalry between Eric and his supporters on one side, and the kin of former King Abel on the other, made Queen Margrethe write to the Pope in Rome around 1262 or 1263, asking the Pope to allow for women to inherit the Danish throne, thus making it possible for one of Eric's sisters to become reigning Queen of Denmark in the event of the young King's death (he had no children as of yet). The Pope seemingly agreed. | SPRÆNGHEST, Margrete Sambiria (I1122)

| 206 | Marriage* Thyra of Denmark married Styrbjorn Starki of Sweden, son of Olaf King of Sweden and Ingelberg of Sula. This was the first marriage for Thyra.6,7,4 Marriage* circa 985 Thyra of Denmark married Boleslav I of Bohemia and Poland circa 985. Jones says that he was old and a heathen when he married Thyra. She ran away from him.!!!!6,8,4 Marriage* Thyra of Denmark married Olav I King of Norway.3 !AInfoNew* Stuart's "Royalty For Commoners" (369:37). From pp.136-138 of Gwyn Jones' "A History of the Vikings": "The ruling families of Scandinavia had many close relationships. OLAF SKOTONUNG of Sweden was Svein's stepson; Olaf Tryggvason of Norway was his brother-in-law. Svein's sister, Thyri, had first been married to Styrbjorn Starki, the unsuccessful invader of Sweden, and after his death was bestowed on BOLESLAV THE POLE, King of Wendland, whom she detested, first because he was a heathen and second because he was old. In her distress she fled to Norway and married Olaf Tryggvason, who was neither." Note that Brian Tompsett's database at his University of Hull website indicates that MEISZKO I, KING OF POLAND was actually the "Boleslaus the Pole, King of Wendland" - very confusing as his son was named BOLESLAUS I, King of Poland. In view of Jones' comment regarding the comparative elderliness of Thrya's second husband, this would, at first sight appear to make sense. However, see notes on Thyra's husband, Bolesslaw, for the explaination that Thyra's 2nd husband was not of the royal Polish family at all.4 Death* 18 September 1000 Thyra died on 18 September 1000.7,4 Family 1 Styrbjorn Starki of Sweden b. 908, d. 985 Child 1.

| 215 | national folk hero Esbern Snare, army commander, chief, magnate, was the eldest son of Asser Rig. He was born on 30. Octobre 1127. Like his brother Absalon he early joined their fosterbrother Valdemar (the Great) in the conflicts about the throne. It seems that he achieved his byname Snare (=resolute) because of his youthful audacity and resolution during the rows. After 'Blodgildet i Roskilde' (see the story about this in the section Asser Rig) in 1157, he lead Valdemar in safety to Jutland in a dramatic journey during a terrible storm, and in the following battle on Grathe Hede he distinguished himself and played a leading role in helping Valdemar to the absolute rule as king of Denmark. In the expeditions to the Wends Esbern Snare is often mentioned as a fearless and indefatigable warrior. He was also one of the king's most confidant friends and advisers, and although he was a daring person, his advice to the king were cautious and wise, like when he on a journey to Barbarossa's imperial court in 1162 advised Valdemar not to travel on without demanding safe passage, an advice even Absalon dared not bring out, and which the king repudiated in disdain. About 1170 Esbern Snare fortificated Kalundborg with castle and towers for the protection of the city and the surrounding country, and he started the building - which his daughter Ingeborg finished - of the beautiful and still existing church with 5 towers as a parish church for the thriving market town. Esbern Snare is considered the founder of the city Kalundborg. Legend: When Esbern Snare was about building a church in Kalundborg he saw clearly that his means were not fully adequate to the task. But a Troll came to him and offered his service, and Esbern Snare made an agreement with him on these conditions that he should be able to tell the Troll's name when the church was finished or in case he could not, that he should give him his heart and his eyes. The work now went on rapidly and the Troll set the church on stone pillars, but when all was nearly done and there was only half a pillar wanting in the church, Esbern Snare began to get frightened, for the name of the Troll was yet unknown to him. One day he was going about the fields alone and in great anxiety on account of the perilous state he was in, when tired and depressed, by reason of his exceeding grief and affliction, he laid him down on Ulshøj bank to rest himself a while. While he was lying there he heard a Troll-woman within the hill saying the words: Lie still baby mine To-morrow cometh Fin, Father thine And giveth thee Esbern Snare's eyes and heart to play with. When Esbern Snare heard this he recovered his spirits and went back to the church. The Troll was just then coming with the half-pillar that was wanting for the church, but when Esbern saw him he hailed him by his name, and called him Fin. The Troll was so enraged at this that he went off with the half-pillar through the air, and this is the reason that the church has but three pillars and a half. He stood by Absalon's side not only in the expeditions against the Wends, but he was also faithful to his brilliant brother in other relations of life. He was among the magnates, who took care of the defense of the archbishop's properties in Skåne. Both Absalon and Esbern showed great care for Sorø Kloster, and Esbern Snare gave big gifts for the peace of the soul to Sorø after the death of his wives, and he willed as much to Sorø Kloster as it was allowed to give after one's death. He was also praised for not raising any objection to his brother who gave almost all his property to churches and monasteries. Absalon left Esbern some loving memorial gifts, among other things their father's favorite drinking cup in silver. Another evidence of his both ecclesiastical and chivalrous disposition is kept in the address at 'Danehoffet in Odense' Christmas 1187, where there were calls for crusades in order to regain Jerusalem from the Turks. He talked about the Nordic forefathers' exploits and urged the young people to prove themselves worthy of their ancestors by taking the cross. Esbern wasn't on the crusade , he was now 60 years and had served his battles, but he must have been rather disappointed when he heard that the crusade wasn't very successful. Esbern Snare was married three times. 1) Holmfred, buried at Sorø 2) Ingeborg , * ab. 1130, buried at Sorø 3 ) Helene Guttormsdatter, 1172-1211 (see text about Helene) buried Vreta Kloster Esbern Snare had 3 sons and 2 daughters: Esbern Snare had 3 sons and 2 daughters: 1) Johannes (Jens) Esbernsen, who was Valdemar II Sejr's Marsk, died in 1213 in Lübeck, buried at Sorø. He married Edle, who is buried at Sorø, they had no heirs. Johannes had on his deathbed given Sorø Kloster Stenløsemagle with additions in 1213 , but his brother Absalon Bælg kept back the property until shortly before his own death in 1232. Ingeborg's husband PederStrangesen and Cæcilia's husband Anders Grosen woudn't acknowledge the right of Sorø Kloster and they appropriated the disputed estate1234, and although the judgment of the church was against them, they kept it for life. 2) Absalon Esbernsen Bælg,(meaning Fat) , known 1199, died ab. 1232, no heirs. 3) Niels EsbernsenMule, Staller (Master of the Horse), married Margrethe, he was buried at Sorø. 4) Cecilie Esbernsdatter Hvide, * ab. 1195, married to Anders Knudsen Grosen (Ulfeldt) of Tersløse (1190-1259), his mother was Gro Strangesdatter, married to Knud? (he had an eagle in his coat of arms) 5) Ingeborg Esbernsdatter Hvide , * 1203 in Kalundborg (her mother was Helena), known as Fru Ingeborg of Kalundborg. She was married in 1225 to Peder Strangesen ( + 1241) , she died 1267 in Hedeby. Peder and Ingeborg had many children, amongst those Anders Pedersen and Ingeborg, who was married to grev Ernst of Gleichen Sæby church, Sjælland. East of the church is Sæbygård situated; it is also known from Ingemann's novel: 'Valdemar Sejr'. Esbern died in 1204 at Sæbygård (Sjælland) which was probably built by him. It was told that he had a violent and sudden death by falling down an external staircase in the yard. He broke his neck on a millstone below.That wasn't unlikely, he was 76-77 years old and might have stumbled. He was buried in Sorø like Absalon. There is more than one legend about Esbern Snare. After his death was said that an evil spirit came and took him away from Sæbygård. Maybe it was the devil who came after his prey? said people, who probably thought on more than one occassion that Esbern had a deal with the devil. Another legend tells about the building of Sæbygård that when the manor was finished, a coachman was ordered to drive Esbern Snare a tour on a certain route. Another coachman was ordered to drive Esbern's wife Helene a tour in the other direction. He or she, who came back to the manor as the last one, should be given to the Devil! If it was Helene's or the coachman's idea is not known, but Helene's coachman broke the shoes off the horse and put them back to front. When he drove out it looked like he was coming home. Instead of the ordered tour he just drove to a place in the garden and waited till Esbern Snare returned, and Esbern thought that his dear lady had come home first. | SNARE, Esbern (I588)

| 220 | Note: Johanne had four children from her first marriage, and 14 more from two other marriages. In 1462 she was named the overseer at Vendsyssel, Norway. She wrote biographies and it is due to her efforts and research that many Norwegians can today trace their ancestors back to the old kings. She seems to have inherited much land and many farms from several very important people, including the first king of Sweden and the first king of Denmark Johanne Andersdatter Panter forfædrelinie V. 19.g.

When he died in 1447, fru Johanne became vassal at Aalborghus and in Vendsyssel; she was the leader of 24 men and signed the tribute to Christian I. She is called 'an astonishing wise and learned lady.' There is a portrait of her at Gaunø slot (Adelsårbog 1892). In extreme old age she lived in her own house by Dueholm kloster at Mors and was buried beside her second husband in the kloster-church, where still in the 18th century was ' a beautiful stone' over her. Both church and stone have now disappeared, but fru Johanne's posterity is as numerous as the sands by the sea ( see i.e. Norsk tidsskrift for Genealogi, 3.bd.)

| 228 | Olaf Tryggvason (Old Norse: Óláfr Tryggvason, Norwegian: Olav Tryggvason), (960s – September 9? 1000), was King of Norway from 995 to 1000. He was the son of Tryggve Olafsson, king of Viken, (Vingulmark and Ranrike), and the great-grandson of Harald Fairhair, first King of Norway. Olaf played an important part in the conversion of the Vikings to Christianity. He is said to have built the first church in Norway (in 995) and to have founded the city of Trondheim (in 997). A statue of Olav Tryggvason is located in the city's central plaza. The information we have about the historical Olaf is sparse. He is mentioned in some contemporary English sources[1], and some skaldic poems. The oldest narrative source mentioning him briefly is Adam of Bremen's Gesta Hammaburgensis ecclesiae pontificum (c. 1070). In the 1190s, two sagas of Olaf Tryggvason were written in Iceland, by Oddr Snorrason and Gunnlaugr Leifsson. Snorri Sturluson gives an extensive account of Olaf in Heimskringla, (c. 1230), using Oddr Snorrason's saga as his main source. The accuracy of these late sources is not taken at face value by modern historians and their validity is a topic of some debate.[2] The following account is mainly based on the late saga sources. | TRYGGVASON, King of Norway Olaf I (I1244)

Harold is one of only three Kings of England to have died as a result of battle, alongside Richard the Lionheart and Richard III.

Godwin and Gytha had several children, notably sons Sweyn, Harold, Tostig, Gyrth and Leofwine and a daughter, Edith of Wessex (1029-75), who became Queen consort of Edward the Confessor. [edit] Powerful nobleman As a result of his sister's marriage to the king, Godwin's second son, Harold, became Earl of East Anglia in 1045. Harold accompanied his father into exile in 1051, but helped him to regain his position a year later. When Godwin died in 1053, Harold succeeded him as Earl of Wessex (a province at that time covering the southernmost third of England). This arguably made him the most powerful figure in England after the king. In 1058, Harold also became Earl of Hereford, and replaced his late father as the focus of opposition to growing Norman influence in England under the restored monarchy (1042-66) of Edward the Confessor, who had spent over twenty-five years in exile in Normandy. He gained glory in a series of campaigns (1062-63) against Gruffydd ap Llywelyn of Gwynedd, the ruler of Wales. This conflict ended with Gruffydd's defeat, and death at the hands of his own troops, in 1063. In 1064, Harold was apparently shipwrecked in Ponthieu. There is much speculation about this voyage. The earliest post-conquest Norman chroniclers report that at some prior time, Robert, Archbishop of Canterbury had been sent by the childless king to appoint as his heir Edward's maternal kinsman, William of Normandy, and that at this later date Harold was sent to swear fealty.[2] Scholars disagree as to the reliability of this story. William, at least, seems to have believed he had been offered the succession, but there must have been some confusion either on William's part or perhaps by both men, since the English succession was neither inherited nor determined by the sitting monarch. Instead the Witenagemot, the assembly of the kingdom's leading notables, would convene after a king's death to select a successor. Other acts of Edward are inconsistent with his having made such a promise, such as his efforts to return his nephew Edward the Exile, son of king Edmund Ironside, from Hungary in 1057.[3] Later Norman chroniclers suggest alternative explanations for Harold's journey, that he was seeking the release of members of his family who had been held hostage since Godwin's exile in 1051, or even that he had simply been travelling along the English coast on a hunting and fishing expedition and had been driven across the channel by an unexpected storm. There is general agreement that he left from Bosham, and was blown off course, landing on the coast of Ponthieu, where he was held hostage by Count Guy. Duke William arrived soon after and ordered Guy to turn Harold over to him.[4] Harold then apparently accompanied William to battle against William's enemy, Conan II, Duke of Brittany. While crossing into Brittany past the fortified abbey of Mont St Michel, Harold is recorded as rescuing two of William's soldiers from the quicksand. They pursued Conan from Dol de Bretagne to Rennes, and finally to Dinan, where he surrendered the fortress's keys on the point of a lance. William presented Harold with weapons and arms, knighting him. The Bayeux Tapestry, and other Norman sources, then record that Harold swore an oath on sacred relics to William to support his claim to the English throne. After Harold's death, the Normans were quick to point out that in accepting the crown of England, Harold had perjured himself of this alleged oath. The chronicler Orderic Vitalis wrote: "This Englishman was very tall and handsome, remarkable for his physical strength, his courage and eloquence, his ready jests and acts of valour. But what were these gifts to him without honour, which is the root of all good?". Due to an unjust doubling of taxation instituted by Tostig in 1065 that threatened to plunge England into civil war, Harold supported Northumbrian rebels against his brother, Tostig, and replaced him with Morcar. This strengthened his acceptability as Edward's successor, but fatally divided his own family, driving Tostig into alliance with King Harald Hardrada ("Hard Reign") of Norway. [edit] Marriages and children Coin of Harold II. British Museum. For some twenty years Harold was married More danico (Latin: "in the Danish manner") to Edith Swannesha and had at least six children by her. The marriage was widely accepted by the laity, although Edith was considered Harold's mistress by the clergy. Their children were not treated as illegitimate. Among them was a daughter Gytha, later wife of the Kievan Rus prince Vladimir Monomakh. Through descendants of this Anglo-Rus marriage, she was a progenitor of English Queen Isabella of France, and hence Harold is the ancestor of subsequent English monarchs. According to Orderic Vitalis, Harold was at some time betrothed to Adeliza, a daughter of William, Duke of Normandy, later William the Conqueror; if so, the betrothal never led to marriage.[5] About January 1066, Harold married Edith (or Ealdgyth), daughter of Ælfgar, Earl of Mercia, and widow of the Welsh prince Gruffydd ap Llywelyn an enemy of the English. Edith had two sons - possibly twins - named Harold and Ulf (born c. November 1066), both of whom survived into adulthood and probably lived out their lives in exile. After her husband's death, the queen is said[by whom?] to have fled for refuge to her brothers Edwin, Earl of Mercia and Morcar of Northumbria but both men made their peace with the Conqueror initially before rebelling and losing their lands and lives. Aldith may have fled abroad (possibly with Harold's mother, Gytha, or with Harold's daughter, Gytha). [edit] Reign as king At the end of 1065, King Edward the Confessor ailed and fell into a coma without clarifying his preference for the succession. On 5 January 1066, according to the Vita Ædwardi Regis, he died, but not before briefly regaining consciousness and commending his widow and the kingdom to Harold's "protection". The intent of this charge is ambiguous, as is the Bayeux Tapestry, which simply depicts Edward pointing at a man thought to represent Harold.[6] When the Witenagemot convened the next day, they selected Harold to succeed,[7] and his coronation followed on 6 January, the first coronation in Westminster Abbey. Although later Norman sources point to the suddenness of this coronation, it is possible that it took place because all the nobles of the land were present at Westminster for the feast of Epiphany, and not because of any usurpation of the throne on Harold's part. Traditionally accepted depiction of the death of Harold Godwinson at the Battle of Hastings, as shown on the Bayeux Tapestry. The figure on the far right once had an arrow in its eye that had later been unstitched. Consensus is growing that both figures are Harold with the first showing the arrow that felled, but did not kill him, and his subsequent death and mutilation at the hands of a knight. In early January of 1066, hearing that Harold had been crowned King, William Duke of Normandy began plans to invade by building 700 warships and transports at Dives-sur-Mer on the Normandy coast. Initially William could not get support for the invasion but, claiming that Harold had sworn on sacred relics to support his claim to the throne after having been shipwrecked in Ponthieu, William was given the Church's blessing and nobles flocked to his cause. In anticipation of the invasion, Harold assembled his troops on the Isle of Wight but, claiming unfavourable winds, the invasion fleet remained in port. On 8 September with provisions running out Harold disbanded the army and he returned to London. On the same day Harald Hardrada of Norway, who also claimed the English crown[8] joined Tostig and invaded, landing his fleet at the mouth of the Tyne. Invading what is now Yorkshire, Harald Hardrada and Tostig defeated the English earls Edwin of Mercia and Morcar of Northumbria at the Battle of Fulford near York on 20 September. They were in turn defeated and slain by Harold's army five days later at the Battle of Stamford Bridge, Harold having led his army north on a forced march from London in four days and caught them by surprise. According to Snorri Sturluson, before the battle a man bravely rode up to Harald Hardrada and Tostig and offered Tostig his earldom if he would but turn on Harald Hardrada. When Tostig asked what his brother Harold would be willing to give Harald Hardrada for his trouble, the rider replied that he would be given seven feet of ground as he was taller than other men. Harald Hardrada was impressed with the rider and asked Tostig his name, Tostig replied that the rider was none other than Harold Godwinson.[9] According to Henry of Huntingdon, "Six feet of ground or as much more as he needs, as he is taller than most men," was Harold's response. It is, however, unknown whether this conversation ever took place. On 12 September William's fleet sailed.[10] Several ships sank in storms and the fleet was forced to take shelter at Saint-Valery-sur-Somme and wait for the wind to change. On 27 September the Norman fleet finally set sail for England arriving it is believed the following day at Pevensey on the coast of East Sussex. Harold now again forced his army to march 241 miles (386 kilometres) to intercept William, who had landed perhaps 7000 men in Sussex, southern England. Harold established his army in hastily built earthworks near Hastings. The two armies clashed at the Battle of Hastings, at Senlac Hill (near the present town of Battle) close by Hastings on 14 October, where after nine hours of hard fighting and less than 30 minutes from victory Harold was killed and his forces routed.[11] His brothers Gyrth and Leofwine were also killed in the battle. [edit] Death and burial The death of Harold, as tradition renders it. This version is uncertain. According to tradition, Harold was killed by an arrow in the eye. A figure in the Bayeux Tapestry appears consistent with this tradition, if that is indeed the type of wound originally depicted in the now-altered artwork. Older etchings made of the tapestry made c. 1730 show the standing figure holding what appears to be part of a spear shaft, rather than clutching an arrow.[12] Likewise, historians are divided over whether the man so wounded is intended to be Harold (the figure has Harold's name above) or if Harold is the next figure, being mutilated beneath a horse's hooves. The contemporary account of the battle "Carmen de Hastingae Proelio" (the Song of the Battle of Hastings), written shortly after the battle by Guy, Bishop of Amiens, says that Harold was killed by four knights, probably including Duke William, and his body brutally dismembered. Examination has shown that the second figure once had an arrow in its eye that had later been unstitched, but this may have been the work of overenthusiastic nineteenth century restorers which was soon removed. A further suggestion is that both accounts are accurate, and that Harold suffered first the eye wound, then the mutilation, and both are being depicted in sequence. Harold's wife, Edith Swannesha, was called to identify the body, which she did by some private mark known only to herself. The spot where Harold died, Battle Abbey Harold's strong association with Bosham, his birthplace, and the discovery of an Anglo-Saxon coffin in the church in 1954 has led some to speculate that King Harold was buried there. A request to exhume a grave in Bosham church was refused by the Diocese of Chichester in December 2003, the Chancellor ruling that the chances of establishing the identity of the body as Harold's were too slim to justify disturbing a burial place.[13] A prior exhumation had revealed the remains of a man, estimated at up to 60 years of age from photographs of the remains, lacking a head, one leg and the lower part of his other leg, a description consistent with the fate of the king as depicted in the Carmen. The poem also claims Harold was buried by the sea which is consistent with it being at Bosham Church which is only yards from Chichester Harbour and in sight of the English Channel.[14] There were legends of Harold's body being given a proper funeral years later in his church of Waltham Holy Cross in Essex, which he had refounded in 1060.[15] There is a legend that Henry I of England met an elderly monk at Waltham Abbey, who was in fact a very old Harold. King Harold had a son posthumously, called Harold Haroldsson, who may have been this man, and may also be the occupant of the grave. [edit] Legacy and legend Bosham Church. The lower three storys of the tower are Saxon, the top floor Norman Harold's daughter Gytha of Wessex married Vladimir Monomakh Grand Duke (Velikii Kniaz) of Kievan Rus' and is ancestor to dynasties of Galicia, Smolensk, and Yaroslavl, whose scions include Modest Mussorgsky and Peter Kropotkin. Isabella of France (consort of Edward II) was also a direct descendant of Harold via Gytha, and thus the bloodline of Harold was re-introduced to the Royal Line. Subsequently, undocumented claims that the Russian Orthodox Church has recently recognised Harold as a martyr have been made.[16] Ulf, along with Morcar and two others, were released from prison by King William as he lay dying in 1087. He threw his lot in with Robert Curthose, who knighted him, and disappeared from history. Two of his elder half-brothers, Godwine and Magnus, made a number of attempts at invading England in 1068 and 1069 with the aid of Diarmait mac Mail na mBo. They raided Cornwall as late as 1082, but died in obscurity in Ireland. [edit] Legend Wiki letter w.svg This section requires expansion. [edit] In popular culture Fictional accounts based on the events surrounding Harold's struggle for and brief reign as king of England have been published, notably the play Harold, by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, in 1876; and the novel Last of the Saxon Kings, by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, in 1848. Modern novels have included "The Golden Warrior" by Hope Muntz, "The Interim King" by James Colman McMillan, "Lord of Sunset" by Parke Godwin, and The Last English King by Julian Rathbone. The one-act play A Choice of Kings by John Mortimer deals with his deception by William after his shipwreck. On screen, Harold has been portrayed by Rex Reason in the film Lady Godiva of Coventry (1955), Patrick Newell in the comedy film Father Came Too! (1962), Michael Craig in a TV adaptation of A Choice of Kings in the ITV Play of the Week series (1966), Barrie Ingham in the two-part BBC TV play Conquest (1966; part of the series Theatre 625), Norman Chappell in an episode of the TV comedy series Carry On Laughing entitled "One in the Eye for Harold" (1975), and Jâms Thomas in an episode of the British educational TV series Historyonics entitled "1066" (2004).

| 240 | Searching for ENGH family information. My G-Grandfather Hans Kristian ENGH was born about 1853 in Nannesatd, Ackershus, Norway. He may have taken the EN GH name from a farm, perhaps Enger. I have found him in the 1887 thru 1900 Oslo (Kristiania) City Directories. He was married first to Trine Helene HANSDATTER, from Aas, Ackershus, Norway. They had at least 5 children: Also found them in the 1900 census in Oslo. 1. Victor ENGH - b. 1885, Kristiania 2. Sverre ENGH - b. 1887, Kristiania 3. Ebba ENGH - b. abt. 1893, Kristiania , emmigrated to Minnesota, married Joseph JENSEN (later CONRAD). 4. Helen Aagot ENGH (later MOORE) - b. 1894, Kristiania, This is my Grandmother. She lived for a while with her aunt, Anne Kirstine (HANSDATTER) GUNDERSEN in Moss, Ostfold, Norway before coming to the U.S. in 1905 where she was adopted by a MOORE family. She was educated in Aberdeen, SD and taught school there at least 1 year. She later moved to Minneapolis and sent for her sister, Ebba. She married Daniel Bolstad JENSEN (later CONRAD), the brother of Joseph (who married Ebba) That's correct, brothers married sisters in a double ceremony. Daniel and Joseph JENSEN (CONRAD) were from Drobak, Ackershus, Norway and emmigrated to Minnesota about 1909. 5. Lilly ENGH - b. abt. 1897, Kristiania When their mother, Helene died; Victor, Sverre, Ebba, and Lilly were raised in an Orphanage at Latvik, Vestfold, Norway. Hans Kristian ENGH eventually remarried. Here's hoping someone can add to my knowledge of the ENGH family. Also I am still looking for paintings by my grandfather, Daniel B. CONRAD. Anyone in Minneapolis, MN or Eau Claire, WI know of any? They are plentiful in both areas. Gary Lewis | ENGH, Ole Kristian Kristopher (I758)

Ebbesen, Sune - 1186th Hans Fader Ebbe, en Søn af Skjalm Hvide, havde i Tronstridighederne efter Erik Lams Død taget Parti for Svend Grade og var til sin Død (o. 1150) en af dennes højt betroede Mænd. His father Ebb, the son of Skjalm White, had in Tronstridighederne after Eric Lam's death took Lot for Svend Grade and was until his death (c. 1150) one of his highly trusted men. Selv sluttede han sig ligeledes fra først af til Svend, men løste senere sit Forhold til ham. Although he joined also the first of the companion, but later resolved his relationship to him. Da Svend nemlig 1154 ved Odense samlede sine Folk og udspurgte dem, om de vilde være ham tro i den forestaaende Kamp med hans Medbejlere Knud og Valdemar, samt forlangte deres Troskabsløfte bekræftet ved Ed, vilde S. paa ingen Maade opfylde dette Forlangende, men forlod Svend. As Svend namely 1154 at Odense gathered his people and questioned them if they would be faithful to him in the impending battle with his rivals Canute and Valdemar, and demanded their allegiance confirmed by oath, Wild S. in no way meet this request, but left Svend. Som Grund til sin Bortgang angav han en Forurettelse, Svend en Gang tidligere havde tilføjet ham, men man faar af Fremstillingen af hans Færd ved denne Lejlighed det Indtryk, at det ikke har været den eneste Grund. As reason for his departure, he declared a grievance, Svend once had inflicted on him, but one gets the production of his journey on this occasion the impression that it was not the only reason. Fuldt ud lige saa meget som den har uden Tvivl Venskabet til Valdemar været bestemmende for det Skridt, han gjorde. Fully as much as it has without doubt the friendship of Waldemar was determinative of the step he did. Baaren frem af Kong Valdemar og Absalon begyndte der efter Svends Fald (1157) en ny og lysere Tid, i hvilken der ofte og paa flere Maader blev Anvendelse for S. Snart var det som Raadgiver -- det siges udtrykkelig, at han og hans to Fættere Absalon og Esbern vare de Mænd, hvis Raad Valdemar plejede at høre og helst fulgte --, og snart var det som Stridsmand. Stretcher up by King Valdemar and Absalon began after Svends Fall (1157) a new and brighter period in which there often and in many ways was the use of S. Soon it was as adviser - it says explicitly that he and his two cousins Absalon Esbern were the men whose counsel Valdemar used to hear and preferably followed - and soon it was as soldier. I saa godt som alle de Tog, der næsten Aar efter Aar hele Valdemars Regeringstid igjennem, og somme Tider to Gange i et Aar, gik til de vendiske Lande, nævnes S. som Deltager. In almost all the trains almost year after year throughout Valdemar's reign through, and sometimes twice in a year, went to the Wends Countries mentioned S. as a Participant. En Tid var han derhos en af Kongens Lensmænd i Skaane og forvaltede Oppebørslerne derfra. One time he was withal one of the king landed men in Scania and managed Up Publicly formulas away. Disse Lensmænd fik i øvrigt ved deres Strænghed, og fordi de vare Sjællændere, til sidst Skaaningerne saa meget imod sig, at disse o. 1180 gjorde Oprør for at blive dem kvit. These landed men were also in their severity and because they were Zealanders, eventually Skaaning are so much against him that these o. 1180 rebelled in order to be rid of them. Oprøret, der 1181 kaldte Kongen med en Hær til Skaane, førte dog ikke til det tilsigtede Maal. The insurgency that 1181 called the king with an army of Scania, did not lead to the desired goal. 1182 døde Kong Valdemar, og med Riget gik ogsaa hans prøvede Raadgivere i Arv til hans Søn Knud. 1182 King Valdemar died, and of went too tried his counselors in inheritance to his son Canute. Længe overlevede S. dog ikke Valdemar; han deltog i Forhandlingerne med den tyske Kejsers Afsending, Grev Sigfred, og var derefter endnu 1184 med paa et Tog til Pommern, men 1186 døde han efter at have givet sin halve Boslod til Sorø Kloster, hvor han blev begravet. Long survived S. exception Valdemar, he participated in negotiations with the German Emperor's envoy, Count Sigfred and was then still in 1184 with an expedition to Pomerania, 1186 but he died after giving his half Boslod to Soro Monastery, where he was buried. Efter alt at dømme maa han have været en betydelig Mand; klog og besindig, mægtig i Gjerning og Tale kaldes han af Abbed Vilhelm, der kjendte ham og havde nydt Velvilje af ham. By all accounts he must have been a significant man, wise and cautious, and mighty in deed and speech, he is called by Abbot William, who recognized him and had enjoyed the kindness of him. S. efterlod sig en Datter Margrethe, som maaske er den Margrethe, der o. 1177 dræbtes af sin Mand Herluf og langt ned i Tiden dyrkedes som en Helgeninde, samt 7 Sønner, hvoriblandt Peder, der blev Biskop i Roskilde, og Anders, Absalons Efterfølger i Ærkesædet. S. left a daughter Margaret, who perhaps is Margaret, who c. 1177 was killed by her husband Herluf and far down in time was worshiped as a saint, and 7 sons, among them Peter, who became bishop of Roskilde, and Donald, Absalom successor in Archangel seat.

| 250 | Sweyn (Swein) II, King of Denmark (1043-1074), the nephew of King Canute in England. When Canute had Sweyn's father murdered, Sweyn fled to Sweden and a few years later, through treachery, made himself King of Denmark. He encouraged rebellious English lords in their revolt against William I "The Conquerer", then permitted himself to be bought off. It is said that Sweyn furnished Adam of Bremen much information which that monk incorporated into his history of northwestern Europe. - Dictionary of Medieval Civilization by Joseph Dahmus Sweyn II Estridsson Ulfsson[2] (Danish: Svend Estridsen) (c.?1019 - April 28, 1074 or 1076) was the King of Denmark from 1047 to 1074. He was the son of Ulf Jarl and Estrid Svendsdatter. He was married three times, and fathered 20 children or more, including the five future kings Harald III Hen, Canute IV the Saint, Oluf I Hunger, Eric I Evergood and Niels out of wedlock. He was courageous in battle, but did not have much success as a military commander.[3] His skeleton shows him to have been a tall, powerfully built man who walked with a limp. Ascension to the throne Sweyn was born in England,[3] as the son of Norwegian Ulf Jarl and Estrid Svendsdatter, the daughter of king Sweyn I of Denmark and sister of king Canute the Great. Sweyn grew up a military leader, and served under king Anund Jacob of Sweden for a time.[3] He pillaged the Elbe-Weser area in 1040, but was caught by the Archbishop of Hamburg-Bremen, who released him shortly thereafter.[4] Svend was made jarl under Danish king Harthacnut,[3] and led a campaign for him against Norway, but was beaten by Magnus I of Norway.[4] When Harthacnut died in 1042, Magnus claimed the Danish throne and made Svend his jarl of Jutland.[5] Sweyn fought for Magnus at the Battle of Lyrskov Heath in 1043.[4] Sweyn won great reputation at Lyrskov Heath, and had the Danish nobles crown him king in Viborg in Jutland.[5] He was defeated by Magnus on several occasions, and fled to Sweden where he eventually established a foothold in Scania.[4] The war between Magnus and Sweyn lasted until 1045, when Magnus' uncle Harald Hardrada returned to Norway from exile. Harald and Sweyn joined forces, and Magnus decided to share the Norwegian throne with Harald.[3] In 1047 Magnus died, having stated on his deathbed that his kingdom would be divided: Harald would get the throne of Norway, while Sweyn would be king of Denmark.[5] Upon hearing of Magnus' death Sweyn said, "Now so help me God, I shall never yield Denmark."[6] [edit] Feud with Harald Hardrada Harald, unwilling to relinquish Denmark, attacked Sweyn and fought a long war. Hedeby was sacked in 1050, and Harald also sacked Aarhus.[4] Sweyn almost captured Harald in 1050, when Harald attacked the coast of Jutland and loaded his ships with goods and captives. Sweyn's flotilla caught up with the Norwegians and Harald ordered his men to throw out the captured goods, thinking the Danes would stop to get the goods. Sweyn ordered his men to leave the goods and go after Harald. Harald then ordered his men to throw the captives overboard. For them Sweyn was willing to let Harald slip away.[6] Sweyn came close to losing his life at the naval Battle of Nissan off the coast of Halland in 1062.[3] The fleets met at night and the Danes seemed to be winning, but when Norwegian reinforcements arrived, the Danes began to sail away. Ship after ship was captured and Sweyn at last was forced to abandon his own sinking ship and row to the coast with a few retainers. They reached land and stopped at the house of a peasant to ask for something to eat. "What was the terrible rumbling in the night?" she asked. "Didn't you know the two kings were fighting all night?" asked one of Sweyn's men. "Who won, then?" the woman asked. "Norwegians," came the reply. "It's a shame on us, for a king we already have. He limps and is timid." "No," King Sweyn explained, "Timid the king of the Danes is assuredly not,"[clarification needed]defended another of the king's men, "but luck isn't with him and he lacks a victory." The housecarl brought the men water and a towel to wash themselves. As the king was drying his hands, the woman tore the cloth from him, "You should be ashamed of yourself for using the whole towel for yourself," she scolded. "The day will come when I will have your permission to use the whole cloth," was the king's comment. Her husband gave the king a horse and Sweyn continued on his way to Zealand. Some time later the peasant was called to Zealand and given lands there for his service to the king, but his wife had to remain behind in Halland.[6] Sweyn had a reputation for generosity and kindness that helped him on several occasions to win the trust of his people. Harald relinquished his claims to Denmark in 1064,[3] in exchange for Sweyn's recognition of Harald as Harald III of Norway,[5] and Harald sailed off to England to try to enforce his claim on the crown of England. [edit] Consolidation of power Coin of Sven Estridson. British Museum. Sweyn's connection to the Danish line of succession was his mother Estrid Svendsdatter, and he took the matronymic surname Estridsson after her, emphasizing his link to the Danish royalty.[4] He also minted his own coins. Sweyn sought to consolidate his power through links to the church as well as foreign powers, and actively sought the friendship of the Popes.[3] He wanted his eldest son Knud Magnus crowned by the Pope, but he died on the journey to Rome. He also unsuccessfully pressed for Harald Bluetooth, the first christian king of Denmark, to be sanctified. He was an ally of Henry III, Holy Roman Emperor against Baldwin of Flanders in 1049, and Sweyn assisted his son-in-law Gottschalk in the Liutizi Civil War of 1057.[4] After Harald Hardrada was defeated and killed at the Battle of Stamford Bridge and William the Conqueror had conquered England, Sweyn turned his attention to England, once ruled by his uncle Canute the Great. He joined forces with Edgar Atheling, the last remaining heir of the Anglo-Saxon royal house, and sent a force to attack king William in 1069. However, after capturing York, Sweyn accepted a payment from William to desert Edgar, who then returned into exile in Scotland. Sweyn failed another attempt in 1074/1075.[4] [edit] Relationship with the church Sweyn feared that Archbishop Adalbert of Hamburg would fill the upper ranks of Denmark's churches with Germans, so he brought Anglo-Danes over from England to keep the Danish church independent. Under the influence of Sweyn,[7] Denmark was divided into eight dioceses around 1060.[8] He set the dioceses up by donating large tracts of land, with the Diocese of Roskilde being the highest favoured one, as he had a good relationship with Bishop Vilhelm of Roskilde.[4] When Archbishop Adalbert died in 1072, Sweyn was able to deal directly with the Holy See. He was determined to bring men to Denmark to teach him and his people Latin so they could converse with the rest of Europe on equal terms. Adam of Bremen travelled to meet this learned king and came away with greater respect for the king's patience and wisdom. Sweyn encouraged the building of churches all over Denmark, and Adam of Bremen was astounded that there were 300 churches in Scania alone, more than in all the other countries of the north put together. Sweyn could be ruthless. One New Year's Eve it was reported to the king that several of his guests and hired men had ridiculed him and talked behind his back. The king was so angry that he had them murdered in the church on New Year's Day. When the king arrived at Roskilde Cathedral for mass, his friend Bishop Vilhelm met him at the door and forbade the king and his party to enter. "You stand condemned before God, a murderer, who has defiled the house of God with blood!" cried the bishop and pushed the king back with his shepherd's crook. He declared the king excommunicated from the church. The king's men drew their swords and stepped forward to hack the bishop down, but Bishop Vilhelm held his ground. "Let him be," shouted the king and withdrew to his farm. There he removed his New Year's fine clothing and weapons and dressed in sackcloth. Then he walked back to the cathedral in his bare feet and cast himself face down in front of the entrance. Bishop Vilhelm had just begun the mass when he was told the king lay humbled at the door. Bishop Vilhelm stopped the service and went to the door to hear the king's abject confession. When the bishop realized the king was truly repentant, he raised him up, lifted the excommunication and led him into the cathedral. [edit] Death King Sweyn died at his farm, Søderup, near Urnehoved Tingsted, near the town of Åbenrå. The Danish chronicles date his death to 1074, while some later sources argue that 1076 was his correct year of death.[3] The king's body was carried to Roskilde Cathedral where he was interred in a pillar of the choir next to the remains of Bishop Vilhelm. Later he was called the "father of kings" because five of his fifteen sons became kings of Denmark.[6] [edit] Legacy One of the legacies of King Sweyn was a fundamental change in Danish society which had been based on whether a person was free or a bondsman. Sweyn is often considered to be Denmark's last Viking king as well as the first medieval one. A strengthened church in alliance with the land-owning noble families begin to pit their power against the royal family. The peasants were left to fend for themselves.[9] Sweyn built a strong foundation for royal power through cooperation with the church. He completed the final partition of Denmark into dioceses by corresponding directly with the pope, bypassing the Archbishop of Hamburg-Bremen. During his reign hundreds of small wooden churches were built throughout the kingdom, of which many were rebuilt as stone churches in the 1100s.[4] Sweyn sought to create a Nordic Archbishopric under Danish rule, a feat which his son Eric I Evergood accomplished.[7] Sweyn seems to have been able to read and write, and was described as an especially educated monarch by his personal friend Pope Gregory VII.[7] He is the source of much of our current knowledge about Denmark and Sweden in the 9th and 10th centuries, having told the story of his ancestry to historian Adam of Bremen around 1070. [edit] Issue Sweyn's first marriage was to Gyda of Sweden, daughter of king Anund Jacob of Sweden. His second marriage, in 1050, was to Gunnhildr Sveinsdóttir, the stepmother of Gyda. The Archbishop of Hamburg-Bremen ordered that the union be dissolved,[4] which was effectuated by Pope Leo IX.[7] After Harald Hardrada's death, Sweyn married his widow Tora Torbergsdatter. He took one mistress after another during his life. Sweyn fathered at least 20 children, of whom only one was born in wedlock.[3] With Gunnhildr: 1.
