[2611] AKA Svein "Forkbeard." See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweyn_Forkbeard. His life and times are dramatically portrayed in "The Last Apocalypse: Europe at the Year 1000 A.D.," James Reston, Jr. (New York: Doubleday, 1998). Sweyn reigned as King of Denmark 980-1014 and of England 1013-1014; a Viking. Buried in London, his remains were removed to Roskilde Cathedral, Denmark. He m. Gundil, probably a Polish princess, and later Sigrid, former wife of the King of Sweden. http://www.geocities.com/missourimule_2000/kingsofdenmark2.html offers: "According to Adam of Bremen, Sven was driven out of Denmark by Erik the Victorious just before Erik's death in 994 or 995. Following the death of Olaf I, King of Norway, in the Battle of Svoldr, Sven became ruler over part of Norway, with Eirik Hakonsson as his vassel. Sven was probably behind the raids on England from 1003 until 1012 following the St. Brice's Day Massacre of England's Danish inhabitants in November 1002. In 1013 he launched a full invasion. Northumbria quickly bowed to him, followed by Lindsay and the Five Boroughs. Sven fought his way through England and soon approached London. It is said the the Londoners destroyed the bridges that crossed the Thames (London Bridge is falling down). Svens army suffered heavy losses and was foced to withdraw. But Sven was accepted as ruler of England and, after Ethelred the Unready fled to Normandy, was crowned King on Christmas Day. Sven's nickname, which was probably used in his lifetime, refers to a long, pitchfork-like moustache, not to a full beard. Such a moustache was the fashion at the time, particularly in England."

He had a long career working at Guilford Industries as a fixer for the Coning/Quilling Department until he retired. He loved fishing, hunting, the Red Sox, and the Patriots. He was always on the move, working with his hands. He was proud of the family home and camp he physically built. A life well lived!
