Noble House Sword Shield No. 334

Noble House Sword Shield No. 334, Knighted 1645-10-06, introd. 1647. Extinct in the early 18th century.

In Schlegel & Klingspor, The unintroduced adelns ätartavlor, it is stated that the noble Håkan Larsson Svärdsköld was the brother of Lars Larsson, noble Silfverswärd, and Jon Larsson, progenitor of the noble families Svärdfelt. Any other source for this than the floating information in Fryxell, Vermland's genealogy book, that this would have been the case, is not cited, nor should there be any. In the mention in the knight house genealogy of Lars Silfverswärd's widow Catharina Svenske's remarriage to Håkan Larsson Svärdsköld, it is not implied that the two men were brothers, which would certainly have happened, if that had been or was considered to be the relationship. In addition, the court's permission had to be obtained for Margareta Silfverswärd's marriage to her stepbrother Lars Svärdsköld, since the two parties were also cousins. but no such condition seems to have been invoked.
