Question: Where was the father of Thorvald Eiriksson born?

Knowledge 1: Thorvald Eiriksson
Thorvald Eiriksson  was the son of Erik the Red and brother of Leif Erikson.The only Medieval Period source material available regarding Thorvald Eiriksson are the two "Vinland sagas"; the "Greenland Saga" and the "Saga of Erik the Red".Although differing in various detail, according to both sagasThorvald was part of an expedition for the exploration of Vinland and became the first European to die in North America.The "Greenland Saga" describes a voyage made by Bjarni Herjolfsson, and the subsequent voyages of Leif Eriksson, his brother Thorvald Eiriksson, his sister Freydís Eiríksdóttir, and the Icelandic merchant Thorfinn Karsefni.The Saga describes hostilities with skraelings, the Norse term for the native peoples they met in the lands visited south and west of Greenland which they called Vinland and Markland.The "Saga of Erik the Red" tells the story as a single expedition led by Thorfinn Karsefni.The voyage of Thorvald Eriksson is told here as part of the Karsefni expedition. [SEP] Knowledge 2: Erik the Red
Erik Thorvaldsson (950 – 1003), known as Erik the Red, was a Norse explorer, described in medieval and Icelandic saga sources as having founded the first settlement in Greenland.According to Icelandic sagas, he was born in the Jæren district of Rogaland, Norway, as the son of Thorvald Asvaldsson.He therefore also appears, patronymically, as Erik Thorvaldsson.The appellation "the Red" most likely refers to the color of his hair and beard.Icelandic explorer Leif Erikson was Erik's son.
