Seems like some of the name here leans towards this profile: Harald "Blue Tooth", king of Denmark

I'd be curious to know if anyone has more information about this person and line. Seems to suggest some relationship to King Harald, but the profile is thin so far.

Ummm...

Harald Bluetooth

Oh, wasn't aware of this... should we, the direct descendants apply for royalties for using the sacred name of our ancestor? :-)

"Bluetooth technology

The Bluetooth logo

The Bluetooth wireless specification design was named after the king in 1997, based on an analogy that the technology would unite devices the way Harald Bluetooth united the tribes of Denmark into a single kingdom. The Bluetooth logo consists of a Younger Futhark bind rune for his initials, H (ᚼ) and B (ᛒ)."

You weren't aware of this?

Wasn't aware of the Bluetooth technology connection, as I said.

Just a bad joke, never mind.

lol all good

Herbastus Haraldsson I (Bluetooth) Gornsson de Crépon is your 31st great grandfather.
Harald "Blue Tooth", king of Denmark is your 28th great grandfather.

These two are the same person though...

I was aware that Harald "Bluetooth" was my 31st great grandfather:
Harald "Blue Tooth", king of Denmark

however I presume you are refering to Urpo with him being his 28th ggf... not me right?

31st here

Geni showing Herbastus my 28th ggf, Harald"Blue Tooth" my 31st ggf. Just checking in...

That profile of "Herbastus" have no sources. Private User
Hei, where are the sources that names parents of Avelina? I am interested
where are the sources for this wild name :) Two different patronymics after the name, whose son is he? For some reason, Harald Bluetooth has now been mixed in this also, without proper sources the profile does not belong to Geni. Wikipedia and internet family trees are not sources.

Kind regards, Saga

Disconnected Avelina de Crépon, wife of Osbern de Bolbec as Harald’s daughter. She was a sister of duchess Gunnora, their parents unknown.

This is the real Harald "Blue Tooth", king of Denmark - I will merge the dups in.
