History

Beata Persdotter Gyllensvard’s mother was Elisabet Hakandotter Hand and her parents were Håkan Knutsson Hand and Virginia Eriksdotter Vasa. Virginia was King Gustav Vasa's and Queen Catherine of Saxe-Lauenborgs first granddaughter, daughter of Erik XIV of Sweden and his mistress Agda persdotter. Agda was called “Caritas” for her beauty, which King Erik XIV was weak for beautiful women. Virginia was born at Kalmar Castle on 1 January 1559. Virginia received two more full sisters in 1564. The Sisters were brought up initially by King Erik XIV's sister Cecilia, she took care of King Erik’s children alongside a girl, named Karin Månsdotter. Karin was as beautiful as Virginia’s mother Agda, so King Erik XIV was also taken by her beauty and dared to marry a commoner.( Imagine if Gustav Adolf the great dared to marry his childhood sweetheart Ebba Brahe. Karin then gave birth to 14 children of which half reached adulthood).

King Erik XIV, wanted to marry Virginia off to the Russian Grand Duke Ivan IV Vasilyevich (Ivan the terrible). The marriage, however, never happen. Virginia was given on 7 May 1585 by John III, six farms in the West, plus on 14 April 1589 by Duke Charles five estates and homesteads in Vadsbro härad, Skaraborgs län. This was confirmed on June 8, 1626 in a confirmation to Virginia Eriksdotter frp, Gustav II Adolf in a letter from Queen Christina on April 22, 1635 to Sal. Aldewan, who gave both Alamiri's and Virginia's daughter's direct heirs in a confirmation 29 January 1650 af Queen Christina. After Beata Gyllensvärd married Jöns Svinhufvud and moved to the farm Röksberg in Mulseryd parish. They also had Röksberg and several other farms in Angerdshestra, constituted a known Gyllensvärdsfäste. In Röksberg the couple's first three children were born. First came a daughter Elizabeth born in 1647, then after her, a son Johan Magnus born on 11 April 1649, then it was time for Carl Bengtsson's grandmother Maria Catharina to see the light of day, who was born on 13 March 1650. Lieutenant Jöns Svinhufvud by Queen Christina made a donation in the neighbouring parish of Angerdshestra on some homestead for diligent and faithful armed service by Jöns and his wife Beata and the male heirs in perpetuity. Then, when Charles X Gustav started his Polish war, it was time again for Jöns to head out to war. Beata and her family came along, which was not unusual at the time. It wasn’t a bed of roses to be kids in the aftermath of war, often there was no food and the journey went on such roads, as we today call vångavägar. Diseases such as plague and other deadly diseases were commonplace, plus the children were beat with rice was prevalent. After following her husband Jöns through war, all difficulties permissions we find Beata on June of 1659 in Bromshög field camp on the island of Zealand Denmark, where days after her husband's death on June 17 gave birth to a daughter. "June 17" is apparent from the letter she sent to Per Brahe on 29 June, where she tells them her husband Jons has died and she has given birth to a small daughter and wishes Per to be her Godfather. I citeraren part of the letter: "Your high speed packet Grefl: Exelents joins iagh sorrow falsely perceive," of the Pope then aldrahögste hafuer my Sahl: K: man Svinehufuedh jemmerfulla Jöns this world called hafuer on June 17, klåckan nästleden between 11 and 12 if the night, and his siääl guhd frigde tröste migh fattigh bedröfuade Enkia småå quarlembnade medh ahro my children again, in synnerheet een small daughter as aldrahögste of the Pope then migh now my Sahl: K.husband's sudden death begåfuat huilken ähr hafuer iagh, in mind, now the next Söndagh that ahr on July 3 to doop and Christendom förfogha. Also countries to Eder's höghe Grefl: ödmiuka: begiäran my Exl, Mirabel high speed packet Grefl: Exell: wanted to prove migh the höghgunstlighe affection, and be vitne to the small child's doop and Christendom. " Beata concluded with: "Beata Gyldensuerdh a maximum of bedrö-fuad's widow" Even by a response letter from Per Brahe on June 30 it will produce, to Beata offered Per Brahe to be Godfather to the child. Letter from Brahe is very difficult to read, but quoting it with parts of Jan's interpretation: Edel and wel. Wife "Us scar Eder skrfvelse af 29 junij deraf inhandigat we fixed and well underkstats made in the order with sorgh eder K.man's deadly frånfelle whose siäl God's eternal mercy and vari and tröste eder medh edra relatives in bedöfvelse efterlemnade and skeg or that of the Pope has deigned to bless eder medh a small daughter and thus nådligen hulpit lifsbördan eder, and well away from dhär "We congratulate you and betacka to have pleasured us to edit the attached its doop and Chrisendom bedia, and dhärivid we aspire in own persohn ask.. Lisa eder friendship "the letter ends with:" Af Helsingør (d).30 junij Anno 1659 åhr P.B. " As it’s clear from the letters, the infant baptism be held on July 3, and as I understand it, the Per Brahe will be the Godfather as he wrote in the letter: the newborn will be our God daughter" and we will also participate in baptism as proof of their friendship (daughter grace never reached adulthood). After the death of Jöns, Beata Gyllensvärd partly farmed the arch in Dalsland, she renamed according to Vasastil the farm Röksberg Haque in Småland. Yard Bow was located about 3 km south of Laxarby Church at Salmon Lake's northeastern shore (älvsborg County).

The farm's history can be followed from the 1500 century. Around 1610, Mrs. Karin gel Bay was the first farm owner and was the arch over the major and District Judge. Jons Svinhufvud inherited the farm and took it to it’s current construction, the county farmhouse. The timber Castle was built probably around 1640 and served as the farmhouse on the estate for the past 200 years. A new Manor House was built in 1846 and the old farm house, which became the wing building was left standing as a residence until 1858, as the gästrumsflygel and workshop areas. The ägodelning house standing as a free basis was demolished and rebuilt on the Enets land in Steneby in 1938. The house plans outlines typical buildings from 1600-century. A förstugeparti in the middle of the House share both the 16 planes in a representation page with two halls and two chambers or private offices, and a casual side with kitchen, domestikrum, night cottage and house. The House has several beautiful period architectural details, Turf roof rests on solid timber floor surfaces and furukavlar. The doors have pretty riveted Baroque fittings and stable ingenious locks. The Hoop House is a unique furnishings and collections which illustrate the building's historical heritage and must be experienced on the spot.(the data) If the House is taken from Olle Enbågens essay). In 1667, Beata was strict being of Vasa blood but she also had a good heart, she honored Mulseryd church with a chandelier made of brass, then in 1673, voluntarily added to its collection. She also donated to Anders Mårtensson half the farm Sundsbyn in Steneby, for his lifetime service as her servant and fishermen. Beata died probably on the yard bågenholm during the winter of 1701-1702 because on 3 February 1701 at Bågeholm they established a testamentsskrift between the Lieutenant Jöns Johansson Svinehufvud (Beatas grandchildren) and his cousin the Virgin Mary Bullock, wherein the Lieutenant bequeathed half of his unencumbered sätsgård Bogeholm to her, "making himself a free disposition, with the assurance that neither he nor his heirs in their lifetime would argue or dispute it. This testamentsskrift was on "persistent invitation" mounted in most protocols, upon 8-10 November 1703. My assessment is that Beata was buried alongside their Hall. next to Jöns in Mulseryd Cemetery.
