Tofta

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tofta was a manor and important manorial lordship in medieval Sweden. Its most prominent holder was Charles Ulvson, Lord of Tofta, maternal grandfather of king Charles VIII of Sweden.

Charles VIII had an invented, partially fabricated genealogy published (compare [1] in Swedish) to create him a descent from an invented granddaughter of king Eric IX of Sweden the Saint through some historically unattested earlier lords of Tofta.
