Hardeknud Konge af Danerne

Hardeknud Konge af Danerne, also called Harde-Knud in family-tree notes, is identified as the 31st great-grandfather in the supplied relationship path. He is described there as a king of the Danes or Denmark, with associations to Jylland and Sjælland (also rendered Staelland). His recorded dates are after 875 and about 936.

Hardeknud Konge af Danerne is identified in the supplied family relationship path as the father of Gorm den Gamle Knudsøn, who is described there as King of Denmark. He is listed as the 31st great-grandfather of Doris Helen Sherrell.

His recorded life dates are after 875 to about 936. Family-tree notes call him "Danernes konge" (King of the Danes) and use several similar descriptions, including king in Denmark, King of Denmark, King of Jutland, and King of Sjælland or Staelland. The notes also give the alternative form Harde-Knud.

The same family-tree notes state that he was king in parts of Denmark around 917 to 948. This is presented as a family-tree claim and is chronologically uncertain because the stated period continues beyond his recorded approximate death date of 936.

Historical context

The supplied notes use titles in Danish, Swedish, French, and English. Sjælland and Staelland are variant renderings of the same regional name in the notes, while Jylland is separately named. The material does not provide contemporary records, narrative events, or documentation establishing the extent or dates of Hardeknud's rule.
