ca.
1180–7 April after 1210, possibly 1230) was a Swedish Queen Consort, second spouse of King Sverker II of Sweden.
Ingegerd was born into one of Sweden's most powerful noble families, the Bjälbo family, as the child of the powerful Jarl Birger Brosa and the Queen Dowager Brigida Haraldsdotter; her mother was the child of King Harald Gille of Norway and had, in her first marriage, herself been the Queen of Sweden in 1160–1161.
Place of birth
The place of birth( POB) or birthplace is the place where a person was born.
This place is often used in legal documents, together with name and date of birth, to uniquely identify a person.
As a general rule with respect to passports, the place of birth is determined to be the country that currently has" sovereignty" over the actual place of birth, regardless of when the birth actually occurred.
The place of birth is not necessarily the place where the parents of the new baby live.
If the baby is born in a hospital in another place, that place is the place of birth.
In many countries, this also means that the government requires that the birth of the new baby is registered in the place of birth.
Some countries place less or no importance on the place of birth, instead using alternative geographical characteristics for the purpose of identity documents.
For example, Sweden has used the concept of" födelsehemortdomicile of birth") since 1947.
This means that the domicile of the baby's mother is the registered place of birth.
The location of the maternity ward or other physical birthplace is considered unimportant.
Similarly, Switzerland uses the concept of" Heimatortlieu d'origineluogo d'origineplace of origin" in German, French and Italian respectively).
A child born to Swiss parents is automatically assigned the place of origin of the parent with the same last name, so the child either gets their mother's or father's place of origin.
A child born to one Swiss parent and one foreign parent acquires the place of origin of their Swiss parent.
In a Swiss passport and identity card, the holder's place of origin is stated, not their place of birth.
In some countries( primarily in the Americas), the place of birth automatically determines the nationality of the baby, a practice often referred to by the Latin phrase" jus soli".
Almost all countries outside the Americas instead attribute nationality based on the nationality( ies) of the baby's parents( referred to as" jus sanguinis").
There can be some confusion regarding the place of birth if the birth takes place in an unusual way: when babies are born on an airplane or at sea, difficulties can arise.
The place of birth of such a person depends on the law of the countries involved, which include the nationality of the plane or ship, the nationality( ies) of the parents and/ or the location of the plane or ship( if the birth occurs in the territorial waters or airspace of a country).
Some administrative forms may request the applicant's" country of birth".
It is important to determine from the requester whether the information requested refers to the applicant's" place of birth" or" nationality at birth".
For US citizens born abroad who under the US Constitution acquire US citizenship at the time of birth, the nationality at birth will be USA( American), while the place of birth would be the country in which the actual birth takes place.
Bridget Haraldsdotter
Bridget Haraldsdotter, also Brigida( c. 1131 – c. 1208) was a medieval Swedish queen, spouse of King Magnus( II) of Sweden.
Brigida Haraldsdotter, was the illegitimate daughter of King Harald IV of Norway.
Her mother is unknown, but she was possibly Tora Guttormsdotter, long- term lover of her father and the mother of King Sigurd II of Norway.
Her Irish first name was the same as that of her father's Irish mother, Brigida O'Brien( d. 1138).
According to legend, she was first married to King Inge the Younger, but this is not considered possible; likely, her first marriage was to the Swedish Earl Karl Sunesson.
She was married to Magnus Henriksen, son of her stepmother Ingrid Ragnvaldsdotter and Ingrid's first husband, Henrik Skadelår.
Her spouse claimed the Swedish throne through his mother in 1160 – 61.
After his death in 1161, she remarried the Swedish" jarl" Birger Brosa of Bjelbo.
The daughter she had during her marriage to Brosa, Ingegerd Birgersdotter of Bjelbo, was to be Queen of Sweden in 1200.
In 1174, the Norwegian throne claimant Øystein Møyla, who claimed to be her nephew, asked for the support of her and her husband, which they also granted.
In 1176, the Norwegian throne claimant Sverre of Norway did the very same thing.
He was turned away at first, but in 1177, they advised the Birkebeiner to acknowledge Sverre as their King and gave him the support of them and of the Swedish King.
Bridget's son Filippus would also join Sverre's service.
Brosa died in 1202.
In 1205, a conflict broke out between her daughter Queen Ingegerd and the Bjelbo family.
The dates of her birth and death are not known, though her daughter's birth year is set at c. 1180.
The dates c. 1131 – 1208 have been suggested.
After the death of her second spouse in 1202, she retired to the Riseberga Nunnery in Närke, where she died and was buried.
Birger Brosa
Birger Brosa (Old Norse: "Birgir Brósa" where "Brósa" means "smiling"), jarl of Sweden 1174–1202, d. 9 January 1202 on Visingsö, was a son of Bengt Snivil and a member of the powerful House of Bjälbo.
In the medieval texts he is either called the "jarl of the Swedes" or the "jarl of the Swedes and the Geats".
Birger was appointed to the position of jarl during the reign of Knut Eriksson.
He maintained the position during Knut's successor Sverker II until his death in 1202.
Before 1170, Birger was married to Brigida Haraldsdotter, the daughter of the Norwegian king Harald Gille.
She had formerly been married to the Danish pretender Magnus Henriksson, who had briefly ruled in Uppsala 1160–1161.
Birger appears to have maintained peace in Sweden during the civil wars that ravaged Denmark and Norway.
Many of the pretenders in these kingdoms sought refuge with Birger.
Among them were the Birkebeiner chieftains Eystein Meyla and Sverre Sigurdsson who were kinsmen of Brigida Haraldsdotter.
Birger's son Philippus was in the service of King Sverre and died as his Earl in 1200.
Birger owned estates in Östergötland, Närke, Värmland and Södermanland.
He was a great donor to the convent of Riseberga in Närke, where Birgitta spent her last years after Birger's death.
As soon as he was dead, a civil war broke out.
