According to "Nachkommen Gorms des Alten", by S.O. Brenner (1978

According to the Rundetaarn database Niels Rani was married to EtleAndersdatter, and that Etle was the mother of Niels Olufsen Bild's wife.And that Etle is the daughter of Anders Nielsen and Gytthe PedersdatterUlfeldt. And that Gytthe is the daughter of Peder Vethus ThrugotusVædder (Ulfeldt) and Cecilie Jonsdatter Litle.

However, the date for this information do not add up. In order for EtleAnderdatter to be the mother of Niels Olufsen Bild's wife, she must havebeen born before 1270. Which means that Gytthe Pedersdatter Ulfeldt musthave been born before 1255. If Cecilie Jonsdatter Litle's father JonJonsen Litle was born circa 1230, this means the Cecilie could not havebeen born before 1245 - she would have been under 10 years old in 1255!This information places Gytthe and Cecilie as contemporaries.

The first member of the noble Uf-family to appear in Bornholm'shistorical records was Hans Uf, who was appointed commander of Hammershusfortress by his mother's brother Niels Joensen (Bild).

Archbishop Jakob died in 1361, and was buried on the 18th of February inLund. Niels Joensen, a clerk who is faithful to Valdemar and said tohave been from Jylland, is appointed his successor. Later that year theHansa offer Valdemar 1,200 marks for the return of their priviledges.Valdemar demands 4,000, and the Hansa agree. Then Valdemar conquersGotland, one of the Hansa's own territories. The Hansa allies itselfwith Magnus and Haakan and send a fleet up the sound. Valdemar defeatsit, then reaffirms his previous alliance with Magnus and Haakan.Haakan's intended bride, Elisabeth of Holstein, is intercepted on her wayto Sweden by Niels Joensen and held captive on Bornholm.

In 1368 Valdemar leaves Denmark to his governor Henning Podebusk while hepursues support in Europe. Albrekt of Sweden attacks Skåne, takingcontrol of the north-west. He is supported by Tue Andersen Galen (nephewof Peder Jensen, the previous Archbishop), Anders Jakobsen Grim and HasseTuesen Galen. The war goes against Denmark. The cathedral compound inLund is conquered and Åhus is besieged. Niels Joensen flees to Bornholm.

During a long winter stay at the fortress the Archbishop died on February5, 1379. Two days previously he had written his testament, wherein heleft to Hans Uf his large gilded silver-horn and two silver cups, also 40Marks in silver to cover expenses for flour, malt, and other items usedduring his stay. As well he received the rights to six dwellings inListed fishing-village, which he had had built for the Archbishop, andwhich brought in 6 Marks silver in yearly rent.

During Hans Uf's long term of office he acquired land in the regionnorth-west of Svaneke. The Archbishop also thought of Hans Uf's daughterCecilie, leaving her a gold ring. She was later married three times, allof her husbands were noblemen from Skåne; she outlived them all.

On January 7, 1407 Johannes Lawesen Uf and his assistant commander, Paul
Degn, signed as witnesses on the oldest Bornholm deed-document to have
survived time's gnawing teeth. The deed concerns the widow of large
landowner Peter Hals, one Marine Clawesdatter (Wiltfang?), together with
her son "Ødbjørn Petersen kaldet Hals", transferring to her daughter
Katharina a farm and mill in Østermarie parish as her wedding dowry to
Orm Herlichsen. The deceased Peter Hals must have left a huge
inheritance, since the daughter's share consisted of both a farm and a
mill.

The Hals-family's coat-of-arms (våben) is "en Krone" (a crown). Helmet:
2 vesselhorns with a crown in between like the emblem in the shield.
Peder Hals' wife Maren Clausdatter may possibly be a member of the
Wiltfang-family.

From the "Dansk adelsvåbener, en heraldisk nøgle", page 213, by Sven Tito
Achen, Politikens Forlag, 1973, København:
Hals "af Bornholm". En Krone. På hjelmen en krone mellem to
Vesselhorn. Farver ukendt. Uradel, Bornholm. Peder Hals 1406; Jørgen
Hals 1523. NDA side 112.

(The above translated to English:)
Hals "of Bornholm". A crown. On the helmet a crown between two
vesselhorns. Colour not known. Noble origins: Bornholm. Peder Hals in
1406; Jørgen Hals in 1523. See: NDA, page 112.

The following has been extracted from a translation of the article
"Landet Borringholm: Bornholmsk-skånske slægtskredse", part 2, by Sigvard
Mahler Dam, published in SAXO, 1986:

On January 7, 1407 Johannes Lawesen Uf and his assistant commander, Paul
Degn, signed as witnesses on the oldest Bornholm deed-document to have
survived time's gnawing teeth. The deed concerns the widow of large
landowner Peter Hals, one Marine Clawesdatter (Wiltfang?), together with
her son "Ødbjørn Petersen kaldet Hals", transferring to her daughter
Katharina a farm and mill in Østermarie parish as her wedding dowry to
Orm Herlichsen. The deceased Peter Hals must have left a huge
inheritance, since the daughter's share consisted of both a farm and a
mill.

From the 1511 "testamente" of Anders Galen (died 1522):
". . . Mester Peder W Cannik i Lund, mijn kære Frende. . . Item myn kære
Frende Anders W. . . Item Jørgen Hals, X-Marck, 1 wpret Segn, 1 Gryde,
Anne Jørgen Halses Søster ligeledes, meth saadan Skell, ath the skwlle ey
ydherre begære ath ærffwe mig. . . ."

That Peder and Anders Uf are mentioned "frænde" (relatives) and heirs in
the 1511 "testamente" (will) of Anders Andersen Galen of Lund (who died
in 1522), leads to the conclusion that their mother is the sister of
Anders Galen, and thus the daughter of Anders (Tuesen) Galen of Herrestad
in Skåne. After the death of Anders Galen in 1522, his will of 1511 was
contested by the children from his sister's first marriage: Jørgen Hals
(born circa 1464) of "X-Marck" (= Øster Marker = Østermarie) and his
sisters Anne and Else. Jørgen Hals was a freeman (frimand), and the
Commander (Hovedmand) of Hammershus fortress. In "Landet Borringholm",
Sigvard Mahler Dam quotes from the deposition made in 1522 contesting the
will; it reads as follows.

(In the original old Danish:)
"Jag Niels Jiebsen (Bryske). . . gør vitterligt for alle med dette mit
obne Breff, at denne Breffwisere Jørgen Hals er Anders Gallens som døde
udi Lund. . . .rette ecte Søstersøn med ogsaa twenne Søstre som førnævte
Jørgen Hals hafwer paa Borindholm, og hafwer jag spurgt i sandingen at
førnævnte Anders Gallen ingen nærmere rette arvinger hafwer end disse
fornævnte. . . ."

(Which modernized reads approximately as follows:)
"I, Niels Ibsen (Bryske). . . declare to all by means of this open Letter
that the Plaintiff Jørgen Hals is Anders Galen's - who died in Lund. . .
rightful Sister's son, as are his two Sisters whom the aforementioned
Jørgen Hals has in Bornholm, and I have inquired about the truth that the
aforementioned Anders Galen has no closer heirs than the aforementioned.
. . ."

Evidently Anders Galen's daughter had eloped with a member of the
Bornholmer Hals-family, and her brother Anders refused to recognize the
marriage as legitimate, and as a result disinherited her children from
that marriage! Although it would seem that he approved of her marriage
to Otte Pedersen Uf. The case was not settled until 1530, about 18 years
later! In the end it was accepted that the children, and heirs, of n.n.
Andersdatter Galen and (Ødbern, or Peder?) Hals had a legitimate claim on
the estate of Anders Galen, as can be seen below.

In Sigvard Mahler Dam's article "Over hals og hoved. Et romaskrig over
Bornholms land", (SAXO, 1991), he speculates that Jørgen Hals sister
"Else Ødberns" means that Else's (and therefore Jørgen's) father was an
Ødbern Hals, son of Peder Hals. However, as Sigvard states, there is no
record of there being an Ødbern Pedersen Hals; also it is just as
reasonable to interpret "Else Ødberns" as meaning that Else was the wife
of a man named Ødbern. The father of Jørgen, Anne, and Else could very
easily be Peder Hals inheritor of Store Halsegård and Lille Halsegård,
who can be found mentioned in records dating from 1443 and 1457.

The first member of the noble Uf-family to appear in Bornholm'shistorical records was Hans Uf, who was appointed commander of Hammershusfortress by his mother's brother Niels Joensen (Bild).

Archbishop Jakob died in 1361, and was buried on the 18th of February inLund. Niels Joensen, a clerk who is faithful to Valdemar and said tohave been from Jylland, is appointed his successor. Later that year theHansa offer Valdemar 1,200 marks for the return of their priviledges.Valdemar demands 4,000, and the Hansa agree. Then Valdemar conquersGotland, one of the Hansa's own territories. The Hansa allies itselfwith Magnus and Haakan and send a fleet up the sound. Valdemar defeatsit, then reaffirms his previous alliance with Magnus and Haakan.Haakan's intended bride, Elisabeth of Holstein, is intercepted on her wayto Sweden by Niels Joensen and held captive on Bornholm.

In 1368 Valdemar leaves Denmark to his governor Henning Podebusk while hepursues support in Europe. Albrekt of Sweden attacks Skåne, takingcontrol of the north-west. He is supported by Tue Andersen Galen (nephewof Peder Jensen, the previous Archbishop), Anders Jakobsen Grim and HasseTuesen Galen. The war goes against Denmark. The cathedral compound inLund is conquered and Åhus is besieged. Niels Joensen flees to Bornholm.

During a long winter stay at the fortress the Archbishop died on February5, 1379. Two days previously he had written his testament, wherein heleft to Hans Uf his large gilded silver-horn and two silver cups, also 40Marks in silver to cover expenses for flour, malt, and other items usedduring his stay. As well he received the rights to six dwellings inListed fishing-village, which he had had built for the Archbishop, andwhich brought in 6 Marks silver in yearly rent.

During Hans Uf's long term of office he acquired land in the regionnorth-west of Svaneke. The Archbishop also thought of Hans Uf's daughterCecilie, leaving her a gold ring. She was later married three times, allof her husbands were noblemen from Skåne; she outlived them all.

Fra Bjarne Kofoeds database:

Occupation: Land-owner (Proprietær)
The respected Bornholm historian Dr. M.K. Zarthmann (published in
1931) relates that Otte Pedersen Uf can be found mentioned in records


dating from 1493 and 1497 in which he is mentioned as the owner of
Skovsholm in Ibsker parish; and that it is thought that his wife was
a member of the Galen family. They are attributed as having had at
least four children:
1) Oluf Ottesen, Chief Justice (Landsdommer) of Bornholm from 1508 to


1522;
2) Peder Uf, "Kannik"(?) in Skåne, 1505;
3) Anders Uf, mentioned as "frænde" to Anders Galen in 1511, and
known to have been alive in 1533;
4) a daughter, given name unknown, married to Oluf Tuesen. (The word
"frænde" can mean either "friend" or "relative".)
Dr. Zarthmann attributes Gunhild Uf to be the "datterdatter"
(daughter's daughter) of Otte Pedersen Uf, thus making her the
daugher of Oluf Tuesen and the unkown Uf daughter. While in "1000
Aner til en Skovgårdsslægt", by Edvard Skovgaard, Gunhild Uf is
attributed to be the daughter of Anders Uf and Anne Sevidsdatter of
St. Kannikegård in Bodilsker parish; in 1449, as a wedding present
from her father Sevid Nielsen, they were given the ownership of St.
Kannikegård. This would mean that Edvard Skovgaard's Anders Uf must
have been at least 25 years old in 1449 (25 was the age at which a
man could own land in that era), and thus born before 1426. If he
was the same Anders Uf who was "frænde" to Anders Galen in 1511, then


he would have been at least 107 years old in 1533. It is probable
that Edvard Skovgaard has mistakenly attributed Anders Uf, the son of


Otte Pedersen Uf, to be the same person as Anders Uf of St.
Kannikegård. It has also been presented that Gunhild Uf and her
brothers are the children of Otte Pedersen Uf's son Anders Uf, rather


than that of his daughter and her husband Oluf Tuesen. Edvard
Skovgaard has lain out an ancestry for Anders Uf, of St. Kannikegård,


that leads back to the first King of a united Danmark: "Gorm den
Gamle", or Gorm the Elder, and his wife Thyra Dannebod. History says


that Thyra was the descendant of a long line of Kings in England,
dating back to 400 A.D. It is an accepted fact that the present
Queen of Danmark, Margrethe II, is a descendant of King Gorm; that
all of the Danish royalty since then have numbered among his
descendants. And thus through inter-marriage many of Europe's royal
families, including the British, are his descendants. Edvard
Skovgaard states that Anders Uf was the son of Otte Pedersen Uf (?-
after 1497) and ??? Galen. That ??? Galen was the daughter of Tuve
(Tue) Galen (before 1320-after 1400) of Næsbyholm in Skåne, who in
1345 was made a Knight (Ridder), in 1364 Marschall, and from 1376-83
was "Gældker" (Treasurer?); he married Ingefred Pedersdatter Urup on
April 15, 1345. She was the daughter of Peder Holmgersen Urup (?-
1378), who is a decendant of Cecilie - a daughter of King Knud
(Canute) the Holy (who was a gr-gr-gr-grandson of Gorm the Elder).
Edvard Skovgaard states they had five children. While in the
book "Nachkommen Gorms des Alten" (Descendants of Gorm) by Siegfried


Otto Brenner (published in 1978 by the Danish Genealogy Society),
Tuve Galen is said to be a descendant of Gorm, it does not list ???
Galen. He is recorded in that book as having four children:
Anders Galen (?-after 1399); Peder Galen (?-after 1400); Ingefred
Tuvesdatter Galen (?-1396) married to Johannes Absalonsen Ulfeldt (?-
1396); and ??? Tuvesdatter Galen married to Conrad Isenvorde
(Isenfurt) (?-1396/97), esquire in Skåne. It does NOT list a fifth
child: the un-named Galen daughter married to Otte Pedersen Uf. I
have not included Edvard Skovgaard's lineage of the Uf family in this


database for the simple reason I found the dates and connections to
be rather suspect. Working with those dates that were provided I
found that the un-named Galen woman must have been born between 1345


and 1380 (at the very latest!). As Edvard Skovgaard's Anders Uf was
alive in 1533, it is doubtful that he was born before 1426. Given a
limit to a woman's child-bearing years, by this calculation she could


not (by any stretch of the imagination) have given birth to a child
past 1430. This would mean that Anders Uf would have had to have
lived to at least 105 years old, and have been fathering children at
70-80 years old. Also, since Otte Pedersen Uf was still alive in
1497, it is doubtful he was born before 1400. Meaning that Otte
Pedersen Uf, at 20-30, would have been married to woman at least 20-
30 years older than himself. This whole senario is remotely
possible, but highly unlikely! The Anders Uf of St. Kannikegård was a


nobleman (adelsmand) and is described as a "Storbonde"; I am not sure


of the word's exact meaning, however: stor=great and bonde=farmer, so


I suspect it means he was the holder of large amounts of land farmed
by "vornedskabe" peasants. In the middle-ages the peasants had been
declared "vornedskabe" (bound), this meant that the descendants of
tenured peasants could be forced to stay on the "vornedegaard" they
were working, and it gave the owner of the farms the right to recall
a dead peasant's heir to take over working the land. By the 1500s
those tenured peasants who lived on manor-owned farms worked off a
portion of their taxes by service in the manor's fields. That said,
it is still possible that the Uf-family of Bornholm is descended from


Gorm; being as that they were of minor Danish nobility, and on
account of the nobility's tendancy to inter-marry amongst themselves.


They seem to have been connected to families, (i.e. the Galen-
family) known to be descended from Gorm; however, the possible
connection is far from certain and will probably remain that way! The


first member of the noble Uf-family to appear in Bornholm's
historical records was Hans Uf, who was appointed commander of
Hammershus fortress by his mother's brother Niels Jonsen, who was
Archbishop of Lund from 1361-1379. During a long winter stay at the
fortress the Archbishop died on February 5, 1379. Two days
previously he had written his testament, wherein he left to Hans Uf
his large gilded silver-horn and two silver cups, also 40 Marks in
silver to cover expenses for flour, malt, and other items used during


his stay. As well he received the rights to six dwellings in Listed
fishing-village, which he had had built for the Archbishop, and which


brought in 6 Marks silver in yearly rent. During Hans Uf's long term
of office he acquired land in the region north-west of Svaneke. The
Archbishop also thought of Hans Uf's daughter Cecilie, leaving her a
gold ring. She was later married three times, all of her husbands
were noblemen from Skåne. She outlived them all and in 1427 she
bestowed a gilded silver-chalice to Nyker Church, which is still in
use, it bears the Uf-family coat-of-arms - with its characteristic
truss (sparren) - and the inscription: "Madame Cecilie gave this
chalice to All-Saints Church, pray for my soul." This indicates that


the Uf-family had a home-farm in Nyker parish.

Adelsmand- en skånsk Ridderslægt. I stedet for Halsegård kan det være
Gadegård ifl. Zahrtman Bind 1 side 94. Ifl. J.A. Jørgensen : Væbner, Adel
og frimænd side 6 skødede hans enke i 1407 en gård, som den dag i dag
kaldes Halsegård i Østermarie, med tilligende mølle til Ormer Herlugsen
som medgift med hans trolovede Cathrine Peder Halsdatter. Medgiftern
vidner om, at Peder Hals må have været en velhavende mand. (Source: Aage

From the "Dansk adelsvåbener, en heraldisk nøgle", page 213, by Sven Tito
Achen, Politikens Forlag, 1973, København:
Hals "af Bornholm". En Krone. På hjelmen en krone mellem to
Vesselhorn. Farver ukendt. Uradel, Bornholm. Peder Hals 1406; Jørgen
Hals 1523. NDA side 112.

(The above translated to English:)
Hals "of Bornholm". A crown. On the helmet a crown between two
vesselhorns. Colour not known. Noble origins: Bornholm. Peder Hals in
1406; Jørgen Hals in 1523. See: NDA, page 112.

The following has been extracted from a translation of the article
"Landet Borringholm: Bornholmsk-skånske slægtskredse", part 2, by Sigvard
Mahler Dam, published in SAXO, 1986:

On January 7, 1407 Johannes Lawesen Uf and his assistant commander, Paul
Degn, signed as witnesses on the oldest Bornholm deed-document to have
survived time's gnawing teeth. The deed concerns the widow of large
landowner Peter Hals, one Marine Clawesdatter (Wiltfang?), together with
her son "Ødbjørn Petersen kaldet Hals", transferring to her daughter
Katharina a farm and mill in Østermarie parish as her wedding dowry to
Orm Herlichsen. The deceased Peter Hals must have left a huge
inheritance, since the daughter's share consisted of both a farm and a
mill.
