A Major Property Owner in Värmland and Dalsland, By Lennart Paulsson

Margareta Persdotter was a Large landowner in Värmland and Dalsland. She inherited salvation property in Steneby parish on Dal after her mother Karin Andersdotter. After the death of her father Per Larsson's "Little Per", she also inherited the farm estate Bro in Värmland, where she and her husband Nils Månsson Roos are believed to have lived from 1579. After the death of her husband in 1603, Margareta ruled and placed her own domains alone. Only in Steneby under the Dingelvik farm she had 12 saviors. It was not only in Steneby that she owned properties. According to a protocol from 1619, she owned the entire Sund's farm in the parish of Nössemarks on Dal as well as several salvation homes in Värmland. Margareta Persdotter died childless in Bro around 1629 and as the closest heir, Elin Jacobsdotter of rider champion Lennart Persson Svenske.

According to a protocol from 1619, the entire Sunds farm was owned by Margareta Pedersdotter on Bro. She was probably married to a Pär Nilsson in Bro. He then owned Bro's farm and several other homes in Värmland.

Already in this quote I see an error. Margareta was not married to Pär Nilsson but to Nils Månsson Roos. In addition, Margareta died childless and had no breast wings.

The next quote reads: Pär Nilsson and Maret Nilsdotter were probably full siblings. Maret inherited his mother's ownership in Sund and had it until 1623.

In 1623, Maret Nilsdotter sold his ownership to Björn Nilsson in Sund. I believe that this heritage castle was sold within the family and can reasonably assume that Björn was the brother of Maret and Pär.

If I can believe without having any evidence, then Maret, Pär and Björn were children of Nils Månsson Roos in a previous marriage and in this way Maret and Björn may have inherited the property in Sund in Nössemark while Nils inherited in Bro. For several years I have tried to clarify this for several years, but each time I have to give up. Maybe someone can help me figure this out, I'm grateful to have a relationship with both Margareta Persdotter and Maret Nilsdotter and Björn Nilsson.

The following statement shows what I know about Margareta Persdotter:

Noble family Roos AF HJELMSÄTER no. 51, Ancient salvation family, introduced in 1625

The family, which in age can compete with the oldest purely Swedish noble families still alive, forms a branch of the Norwegian Hafthorson family and is the only one of Norway's old noble families that still survives. Its oldest known ancestor Jon Raud Ivarsson is assumed to have been the grandson of the Norwegian king Håkon Håkonsson's cousin Jon af Suderheim, who lived around 1240. It branched out already in the 14th century into the two Swedish families, of which one of the genealogists has been called Roos af Ervalla, while the other has been named Roos af Hjelmsäter ever since its introduction to the knight's house. The common origin of these families - they were considered in the past as two separate families despite the common family mark, a red five-petalled rose in a gold field - has been established by K. H. Karlsson in an essay in Personhistorisk Tidskrift in 1909. In Norway, the baronial family died out at the end of the 15th century with Tymme Tymmesson, the son of Jon Hafthorsson's brother, the knight Sigurd Hafthorsson's grandson. - The family was matriculated at the Knights' House in Finland on 02/07/1818 under No. 2 among nobles, but expired there as early as 1832.

Roos af Hjelmsäter, by Wikipedia

Sudreim clan in Norway

The Sudreim clan (Sudreimsætten) was originally a part of the Norwegian nobility. Its progenitor, lendmann Åge Varg of Sørum in Romerike (ca. 1110-ca. 1150), was married to a daughter of King Harald IV Gille of Norway.

Åge Varg was the paternal grandfather of Olav Mokk († ca. 1224), Sysselmann of Hedmark, who himself was the father of lendmann Ivar Olavsson of Skedjuhov († ca. 1240). The latter's son, Jon Raud Ivarsson of Sudreim (ca. 1245-ca. 1312), was the father of Havtore Jonsson († ca. 1320), who married King Håkon V's daughter Agnes Håkonsdotter. Their sons were Jon Havtoresson (ca. 1312–1395) of Elingård and Sigurd Havtoresson (ca. 1315-ca. 1390) of Sudreim.

Jon Havtoresson married Birgitta Knutsdotter († 1395) and was the father of Håkon Jonsson (1345-1391), who through inheritance and marriage, received extensive landlord in eastern Norway (in Borgarsyssel and Romerike) as well as in western Norway (in Agder). Håkon Jonsson was suggested as King of Norway after the death of King Olaf IV in 1387. He became the progenitor of the Roos af Hjelmsäter family of Swedish nobility.

Sigurd Havtoresson married Norway's richest heiress, Ingeborg Erlingsdotter, daughter of Erling Vidkunsson. He thereby came to possess the Giske and Bjarkøy Estate. Their daughter was Agnes Sigurdsdotter, who married the Swedish nobleman Jon Marteinsson (Stjerne) († ca. 1400). She was the mother of Sigurd Jonsson (Stjerne) († 1453) of Sudreim, Giske, and Bjarkøy. Sigurd Jonsson was Regent of Norway. As a royal descendant, he was offered the throne but rejected these suggestions. His son junker Hans Sigurdsson (Stjerne) († 1466) was the family's last man in Norway. Roos af Hjelmsäter in Sweden

Roos af Hjelmsäter in Sweden

Jon Havtoresson and Birgitta Knutsdotter were the parents of at least five children. According to Adelsvapens genealogi it was not their son Håkon Jonsson but rather his younger brother Brynjulf Jonsson († before 1422) who became the progenitor of the Swedish noble family Roos af Hjelmsäter.[9]

The family was in 1625 introduced at the House of Nobility under the name Roos af Hjelmsäter as noble family no. 51. A branch was in 1705 created barons under the name Roos as baronial family no. 186. This line became extinct in 1765.
