Svinhufvud Family, by The Swedish Biographical Lexicon

Volume 35 (2020-), page 23.

Hans Jeppesson's son Ingel Hansson (d 1534) in Gylle in Stora Tuna parish was a bailiff in Dalarna in 1527–28 and 1531 but was executed after the bell rebellion together with his cousin Måns Nilsson (bd 26) . His son Nils Ingelsson (d earliest 1600), who has been confused with a Finnish bailiff Nils Ingesson (Lokalf), was mayor of Västerås 1575–95. A grandson's son of this was introduced in 1642 at Riddarhuset with the name Ikornsköld. Whether the family's unexpected coat of arms, a red squirrel on a blue field, is a misinterpretation of the boar's head coat of arms or is an adoption of the maternal coat of arms is uncertain. The family died out already in 1644.

Ingel Hansson's half-sister Margareta Hansdotter was married to Jöns Persson (d at the earliest in 1564) at Risholn, who was district magistrate in Dalarna 1544–64 and received shield letter in 1561 (Samuelson), mother of Anna Jönsdotter . The latter's husband, the miner Daniel Torkelsson in Främby in Stora Kopparbergs parish, received a letter of shield in 1581 (Samuelson). Their son, the vicar Daniel Danielis Montanus (d 1588) in Vika used the boar's head coat of arms in his seal sometime between 1571 and 1577. His brother Jöns Danielsson(d 1613), who also bore the boar's head coat of arms, signed himself up to Främby and from 1583 was bailiff in various fiefdoms in Dalarna. Some of his descendants came to live in Västergötland and Dalsland, which is why this family branch at Riddarhuset is called S in Westergötland . Numerous officers have belonged to it, seven of whom took part in Charles XII's war.

History

The only person, with a direct connection to the older Svinhuv head family, which I can remember on my straight arm was in 1561 is the judge Jöns Persson in Risholm - (Risholn, in Leksand). According to "Den with Sköldebref lanad, but not to Riddarhuset introduced the Swedish nobility's tables" (Schlegel & Klingspor 1875) and he will have taken half a moose in the weapon. Hemström 1998, on the other hand, writes that the weapon represents a half deer (which task is correct I have not investigated, but judging by his origin lets the deer more likely). Jöns Persson was:

• 1) married to Margareta Hansdotter (older pig head-genus)
• 2) father-in-law of the year 1581 Daniel Torkelsson (Svinhufvud i Westergötland, no. 199)
• 3) Uncle of the year 1574 added Peder Hansson (Svinhufvud of Qvalstad, no. 145).
