Page "Gudrød the Hunter" Paragraph 4
from
Wikipedia
While Gudrød is portrayed as a king in Oppland in some older texts, Snorri writes that he was a king in Vestfold.
Gudrød first married Alfhild, a daughter of Alfarin, king of Alfheim ( now Bohuslän ).
Gudrød inherited half the province of Vingulmark.
They had a son, Olaf Geirstad-Alf.
When Alfhild died, Gudrød sent his men to the king of Agder, Harald Granraude, to propose a marriage with his daughter Åsa.
When Harald declined, Gudrød decided to take Åsa by force.
They arrived at night.
When Harald realised that he was being attacked, he assembled his men and fought well, but died together with his son Gyrd.
Gudrød thereafter captured Åsa and married her.
They had the son Halfdan the Black.
