Hi, I am distantly related to a king of Norway Denmark, though I don't remember his number.
This comes through my relationship to the Severson line.
I do know he was married twice. One these marriages was to the daughter of George 2 of England.
He also has a lover, my side of the line.
He only lived some 40 years, but fathered some 24 children. |

| Hi, This may be a naive question, but I know that Prince Phillip of England is a Prince of Denmark and Greece. How does he fit into the picture? |

| Look for webpages devoted to Royal Genealogies - I'm sure you'll find much information about both Frederick and Phillip. Whether or not you can tie them together in any way should be your task. |

Hi, While I am quite cognitive this is a Norweigen board, I have done the research.
It would seem that at this time all of Europe was a family. |

I am sure a simple Google search would bring up many sites with information. If you go back far enough, everyone
is related to royalty. |

Hopkins, First of all many thanks for your help. Yes, by virtue of my grandmother, Mathilda Severson, I am part Norweigen.
To answer your question: The first relative in that side of the line is a person by the name of Eirik Olsen Kjelven.
As you probably know the Norweigen language has a habit of reinventing itself when it comes to names. |

Variations in name spellings, even in Norway, are NOT likely to change a name from Eirik Olsen Kjelven from what your friend Jeff lists as "Elise? Ester? Fredriksdatter".
Contact Jeff T. Severson - he should be able to provide you information about the sources for the information he has posted online. |

King Fredrick V of Denmark wasn't even born until 1720. He can NOT be the father of Eirik Olsen Kjelven born in 1660 or 1661 in Norway.
Whether ''shorttail" or shirttail relative - contact Jeff again. He posted your descendancy from Fredrick the 5th online -- link to that given above.

Hopkins, Please forgive me. I gave info that while was pertinent, was not relavent to the matter at hand.
Actually I should had looked at the provided link and realized that Elise or Ester Fredriksdatter who died in 1746 should had been the woman to be considered. |
