Sture (the sea leaf species), related
Their son Gustaf Sture (d 1444) is mentioned in 1441 and 1445 as Gustaf Anundsson "calls S" and "who was called S". In Vadstenadiariet's note on his funeral, he is named Gustaf Sturesson, which is linked to his father being so often called Sture Algotsson. He has at the earliest been able to be deposited in the conditional letter of resignation that three bishops and nine saviors, including his uncle Gustaf Algotsson 11 Jan 1436 in Arboga wrote to King Erik. On Lord's Day in Söderköping the same year, S, like his uncle, was among the 50 national councils and men who issued the privilege letter for the Swedish church on October 25 and among the 66 issuers of the antedated privilege letter for Sthlm. Both were also among the 95 aristocrats who on the gentlemen's day in (South) Tälje late summer 1438 entered the aforementioned confederation. By the same year he had married his half-sister Birgitta Stensdotter (Bielke; bd 4, s 152); he had been among the fasters in his morning gift letter, when he later remarried after becoming a widow after her cousin Birgitta Turesdotter (Bielke; vol. 4, p. 150). In 1441, the Archbishop of Lund testified that a shipload destined for him from Holland was brought by S, who was annexed at Älvsborg. This had been defended in 1439 against a Norwegian attack by Karl Knutsson's half-brother, the landowner Ture Stensson (Bielke; vol. 4, p. 151), Birgitta Stensdotter's brother, who died the same year. Thus S, by his brother-in-law Karl Knutsson, must have been made to Ture Stensson's successor at Älvsborg. Like Karl Knutsson, he was among the 76 who, according to Vadstenadiariet, was dubbed a knight at King Kristoffer's coronation in Uppsala Cathedral on 14 September 1441. In the conciliation letter between Karl Knutsson and Cristiern Nilsson (Vaasa) a few weeks later, S is mentioned among the former six lifters. In 1443 he was involved in the attempt of the Pomeranian Duke Barnim to mediate between kings Erik and Kristofer. S was then chief of the Kalmar, which he held even at his death the following year. The Lundensian Archbishop's aforementioned complaint against him in 1441 is not the only evidence of violent tendencies in him. Another complaint is in Bishop Tomas's letter to Karl Knutsson 1436 (Bring). Son of S was Another complaint is in Bishop Tomas's letter to Karl Knutsson 1436 (Bring). Son of S was Another complaint is in Bishop Tomas's letter to Karl Knutsson 1436 (Bring). Son of S wasSten Sture (the elder) (below) , with whom this genus S died on the male side. Her only sister, Birgitta Gustafsdotter, became the grandmother of King Gustav I. - https://sok.riksarkivet.se/sbl/Mobil/Artikel/34621
