Övrig kommentar 170423: Jag har ändrat till hennes rätta efternamn (Sparre av Tofta) - Bonde hette maken och att hon enligt "borgerligt" mönster från början av 1900-talet skulle ha använt sig av makens efternamn är mer än befängt.

Enligt den *källan är hon gift 2 med Sten Turesson Bielke, hennes sista man mao. ___________________________

Karl Ulfsson Sparre had a daughter Margareta Karlsdotter. Whoever was her mother is no one who knows for sure. Karl Ulfsson was married five times.

Karl had frequent links with Israel Birgersson at the beginning of his career. One could guess that Helena Israelsdotter was his first wife or one of the first. Many researchers want to guess her as a mother to Margareta but it's uncertain.
