______________________________________

Gunhild's relation to Aslak Erlingsson of Sola is probably a misreading of

Snorri Sturlasson's Heimskringla, The Saga of St. Olav, chapt. 31, saying

that Gunhild was married to Aslak (not his daughter). This seems to be a

mixup with her sister Sigrid. Chapt 131 says Sigrid is the wife of Aslak.

Gunhild was divorced from Svend Estridsen ca 1054.

... from Brynjulf Langballe, Norway

Gunhild married Anund Jacob, son of Olof Skötkonung Eriksson of Sweden and Estrid of the Obotrites. (Anund Jacob was born in 1008 and died circa 1050-1052.)
