DO NOT MERGE WITH HIS MOTHERS FATHER; THEY ARE NOT THE SAME PERSON!

Landnåmabok, kafla 145:

Ingemund tog hele Vatnsdal ned til Helgesøen og Urdsøen mod øst. Han boede på gården Hof og der fandt han sin Frejfigur, da han var ved at grave sine højsædestolper ned. Ingemund og Vigdis havde sønnerne Thorstein, Jøkel, Thore Bukkeballe og Høgne og døtrene Jorun og Thordis. Med en trælkvinde havde Ingemund desuden en søn, som hed Smed.
