Bengt Snivil
Bengt Snivil is referred to by Saxo Grammaticus as the son of Folkes , the progenitor of the Folkung family , who married Ingerd, daughter of King Canute the Holy , who was murdered in 1086 . These two had two sons, Bengt and Knut. One of them - Saxo doesn't say which one - came from Birger Brosa and two brothers who have been identified as Karl Jarl Döve and Magnus Minnesköld . A 300 years younger source, the "Genealogia folkungorum", which refers to an old record in the monastery Varnhem , writes that Bengt Snivil was the son of Folke the Fat and father of Birger Brosa and his brothers. The sources do not say whether Bengt was Jarl or not. His other circumstances are also completely unknown.
