Sweyn II Estridson, King of Denmark - Death- Burial

According to the information I have, he is my 25th Great Granfather. But Who knows if is true?Best regards Kirsten Holm

You should be my 16th cousin, It is nice to hear from you. I am surprised to have relatives almost everywhere !

Yes it is correct!

Only one fault, Sweyn II Estridson was known by that name In Sweden and Denmark, but in Norway they called him Sweyn Ulfson.

It's the death / burial discrepancy, that's in the question, methinks. Gap of two years.

Sorry, but he seems to have died the same year he was buried in a pillar tomb inside the Roskilde Cathedral. S. døde paa Kongsgaarden i Søderup i Slesvig 28. April 1076 (de danske Aarbøger have, sikkert urigtig, 1074) og blev begravet i Roskilde Domkirke.

Apropos, what's that "sorry" for? That's entirely out of place,

My uncle fell in battle in the Karelian Isthmus June 29, 1944. His bones were found and finally buried October 28, 2002.

So, that's no wonder to anyone else than expect maybe to the Geni crew.

Tuommosta kertoo edellämainittu Dansk biografisk Lexikon::

"S. dode paa Kongsgaarden i Soderup i Slesvig 28. April 1076 (de danske Aarboger have, sikkert urigtig, 1074) og blev begravet i Roskilde Domkirke."

Eli 'S. kuoli Kongsgaardenissa Soderupissa Slesvigissä 28. huhtikuuta 1076 (tanskalaisessa Aarbogerissa on, luultavasti virheellisesti, vuosi 1074), ja hänet haudattiin Roskilden tuomiokirkkoon. '

Sweyn is my 27th great grandfather :D

Sweyn II Estidson (Ulfson) was the same person. His Mother Estrid ( sister to King Knud the great) , his father was Ulf Jarl. He was born in England

Sweyn II Estridson, King of Denmark is your 25th great grandfather.
