Research Notes
The problem points (points of broken genealogy) in the medieval royal lineage in the so-called Fairhair dynasty are:
- whether either Olav I of Norway or Olav II of Norway descended from Harald I of Norway (Harald Fairhair).
- whether Harald III of Norway descended from Harald I.
- whether Harald IV of Norway was son of King Magnus III of Norway.
- whether King Sverre was son of King Sigurd II of Norway.
- whether Haakon IV of Norway was son of King Haakon III.
Each of them came from "nowhere" and won the kingdom, the three latter claiming to be hitherto unknown natural sons of an earlier king.
