Dyre (noble family)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Dyre family was an old Danish noble family.

The earliest recorded member is said to have been Offe Dyre, who is mentioned in 1208 and who took part in the Battle of Lena . But that is not certain. Another Offe Dyre was involved in the murder of King Erik Klipping. Her coat of arms was two white ox horns in a blue field and on the shield. The family lived in Zealand and Jutland .

The Jutian branch of the family, which only bore the name Dyre, can be traced back to Jens Lagesen zu Tilsbæk, who is mentioned in a document between 1406 and 1432. The older line, which died out in 1718, comes from his grandson Iver Clausen zu Sø auf Mors. He was an episcopal liege on Aalegaard . This branch died out in 1718 with Councilor Palle Dyre zu Sindinggaard. He was married to Marie Grubbe, who was previously married to Ulrik Frederik Gyldenløve, but was divorced from him. But after ten years this marriage also ended in divorce.

The rich younger sex of the lungs comes from the other grandson Vincens Iversen zu Tilsbæ († 1497), who was married to Kirsten Tygesdatter Lunge . This sex died out with Ove Lunge in 1637.

His sister Mette Iversdatter Lynge (around 1460 to around 1527) was first married to the Norwegian Councilor Anders von Bergen zu Kjølsberg, then to Knut Alvsson zu Giske and, after his murder in 1502, lastly to the Swedish Governor Svante Nilsson Sture zu Eskjö. When he died in 1512, Mette returned to Denmark and in 1516 became the prioress of St. Agnete Monastery in Roskilde .
