If Olaf died in 1599, his est d.o.b. cannot have been 'up to 1598'. If dad was born 'in the '1530's, then it could be anything between 1550 to 1573 (before Johan was born 1578 by his new wife Ebba). As they seemed close, I would err towards the later estimate. Ebba and Claus married 1573, so let's say, 1561-ish - 1570-ish. So, he was between 28 - 48 when he was executed.
