Kammerzofe Birgitte Lauridsdatter (Skjalm Bang?)

The big accident happened when Ellen Marsvin's husband found Otto in her bedchamber, however she got out of that predicament by claiming that Otto was there to ask for her maid's hand in marriage..........so Otto now had to marry. In 1599 he married Birgitte who seem to have come from a good family. The crest, a black timber weapon in a silver shield seems to indicate she is of the Skjalm Bang family.
