Opplysningane her er lagt inn på grunnlag av ein artikkel om Giskearven av Bjørn Jonson Dale i Årbok for Sunnmøre 2016

Nordisk Familjebok fra 1876 sier om Jon:

2) Bjarkö-ätten. Arne Arnesson var liksom brödren Torberg en trofast anhängare till Olof den helige, oaktadt också han var gift med en dotter till Erling Skjalgsson. Då Olof återkom till Norge, slöt sig A. till honom och blef svårt sårad i slaget vid Stiklastad. Hans son Jon äktade en dotter till Tore Hund och ärfde derigenom dennes stamgods Bjarkö. Jons son var den från Magnus Barfots sista Irlandståg (1103) bekante Vidkunn Jonsson, hvilkens son Erling under de inbördes krigen tillhörde Magnus Erlingssons parti. Dennes son Vidkunn Erlingsson blef vid 18 års ålder (1183) dödad af Sverres anhängare. Med honom utdog ätten, och Bjarkö gick genom hans syster Ragnas giftermål öfver till lagmannen i Hålogaland Bjarne Mardsson. Från dem härstammade "den yngre Bjarkö-ätten", som sedermera äfven ärfde Giske.
