House of Bonde

[1] Tord is attested to have been made a squire in 1310, then a knight in 1316 after which he joined the rebellion to oust King Birger Magnusson from the throne.

Tord was among the delegates sent to sue for peace with Birger once he fled to the court of his brother-in-law King Eric VI of Denmark.

He was also present at the council of lords who sentenced the former king's son Magnus Birgersson (not to be confused with the Swedish king Magnus Birgersson) to death.

[2] His brother Erengisle had a far less eventful life, the only thing that is known is that he was made squire in the year 1319 and remained as such until his death in 1350, and that the inheritance from him and his wife were split equally between his four children; the brothers Ragvald, Peter and Filip and their sister Ingeborg.

[3] Today, two branches of the family survive, both stem from the descendants of Erengisle.
