Biography
Från Wikipedia;
- Gudrun Osvivsdotter (islandsk: Guðrún Ósvífursdóttir) var en islandsk kvinne på 900-tallet, og er hovedpersonen i islendingesagaen Laksdøla saga som tar for seg historien til laksdølene.
Research Notes
- Relationships between historical figures could have been simplified or even fabricated in the text to give the impression that succession remained within the same family….Precise chronology is also difficult to assess from the Sagas….The conclusion must be that the tight family network described in the Sagas is unlikely to be correct and that the relationships shown below should be treated with considerable caution.
- Birthyear is an estimated date from Íslendingabók. (Thorisdottir-4 12:22, 11 February 2024 (UTC))
