About Sólveig Jónsdóttir

There are no records in Icelandic genealogy records that this Solveig Jonsdottir was a daughter of Jón Loftsson and his only known legal wife, Halldóra Brandsdóttir. Jón Loftsson had many concubines and had children with them that he adopted and acknowledged and they inherited his estates after his death, (NB This one seems to have died BEFORE the father, just for your info. U.M) but no records state that a Solveig Jonsdottir who married to a man outside Iceland was a daugther of Jón Loftsson and his wife Halldóra - Further more - NO descendant's, husband or other relatives of a Sólveig Jónsdóttir in Norway seem to be mentioned as beneficiaries of Jón Loftsson and his wife Halldóra Brandsdóttir if this Sólveig Jónsdóttir was in fact a daughter of Jón and Halldóra who "seems to have died" before Jón (sign. Anna Petursdottir).

Athugasemd! Það eru engar heimildir í Íslenskum ættfræðigögnum að þessi Sólveig hafi verið dóttir Jóns Loftssonar og Halldóru Brandsdóttur.

Slå ej ihop med Solveig Jonsdatter, systern som var gift med Guðmundur „gríss“ Ámundason.

Don't merge with her sister with the same name.

  • " Sólveig Jónsdóttir " = En datter viss navn som vi ikke kjenner, men som ble gift med Asbjørn Jonsson, en høvding som slåss i krigen mot kong Sverre Sigurdsson av Norge og døde i 1184 i et sjøslag i Sognefjorden.

(For the record, the name for this daughter are unknown, but a whole lot of people have for a long time been using the name Solveig in their pedigrees, if the profile were to be renamed to N.N. Jonsdotter it would both be right and wrong. The chance that the father actually had two daughters with the same first given name lies in the range of 1-5%, so it's not totally unusual).
