Talk:Freydís Eiríksdóttir

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

this page is not historically correct, because my family is descended from ericsson and we have kept his journals, for 1000 years, you people really need to get the facts straight

This comment should be taken with a reasonably large grain of salt, as the same person added the comment "my grandma is leif ericsson's uncle".Simen 88 18:58, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Concerning right naming

It is most likely, that the husband to Freydís was named Þorvarður, but not Ehemann, hence this means husband in german, and it is not an icelandic name. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Psilo (talk • contribs).

[edit] merge

Agree the article Freydis Eiriksdottir is not wikified at all, and simply copied from a personal website. The article with the diacritics should be the base of the merged article. --Shuki 22:26, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reference needed

According to the Icelandic account, Freydis was married to Þorfinnur Karlsefni Þórðarson. Well, I can not find or confirm this anywhere else, both Eirik Raudes saga and Grønlendingenes saga agrees that Frøydis was married to man called Torvard while Torfinn Karlsevne was married to Gudrid, widow after Torstein Eiriksson. There might be that some other Icelandic sources that claim that Torfinn was married to Frøydis that I don't know about, questions are: which ones? --FinnBjork 13:30, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
