  The historical record makes no mention of the mother of Ulf and his siblings. It only says that Thorgils was son of Bjorn, that he was father of Ulf (and elsewhere siblings of Ulf are named without naming their parents), and that Thorgils was as brave as his father. No surviving record even hints at Ulf's mother, let alone giving here a name, dates and places. Unfortunately, many genealogists find this incredibly unsatisfying, so inevitably someone simply made up a name for her and assigned her dates and places but these don't have the slightest basis in the historical record.

1. Ulf Thorgilsson Jarl of Denmark, b. 993     d. 31 DEC 1026 in Roskilde, København, Denmark
2. Gytha Thorgilsdóttir, b. 996 in Hålland, Jämtland, Sweden     d. 1069 in Flanders, France
3. Fulbert de Falaise, b. 976     d. 1017 in Normandy, France

   Note: Florence tells us that Thurkil's wife bore the name Edith (Chronicon, i., 183). The Jómsvikingasaga (c. 52) has Thurkil marry Ethelred's daughter Ulfhild, Ulfketel's widow. However, Ethelred had a daughter Edith who prior was married to Eadric. (Florence, Chronicon, i., 161.)

   Note: We have no reliable accounts of the time or circumstances of Thorkell*s death. William of Malmesbury states that Thorkell was killed after he returned to Denmark, and the Supplement to the Jomsviking Saga even says that Cnut was once invited home to Thorkell and met Ulfhild, the daughter of Æthelred, whom Thorkell had married after killing her husband Ulfkell Snilling in revenge for his brother Hemming’s death.
