Eric XIV King of Sweden

[Candace]

I would like to verify references I have read about the legal and illegitimate children of Erik XIV. I have seen information on a relationship with Agda Persdotter and the 3 daughters Virginia Eriksdotter (1559-1633), Constantia Eriksdotter (1560-1649), Lucretia Eriksdotter (1564-died young). Before I continue my family research I wanted to be sure this information was accepted fact and not disputed or just plain wrong. Any information would be appreciated.

Hi
As a descendant of Virginia Eriksdotter, I hope she has existed! It seems quite clear that she was a daughter of Erik XIV, he actually did a horoscope for her according to a book I read recently.  
 
I know that at least Constantia was a child together with Agda, Lucretia I have heard about, but cannot remember.
 
I also think, if I rememeber correct, that the only decentants of Erik that are alive today, are the ones fro Virginia and Constantia (and I have heard a number of 100,000!!!)

I have a book written by Ulf Sundberg where he mentions both legal and illegitimate children of Erik XIV.

Well I guess that answers my doubts on that score. Isabella, seems I may be related through the Virginia Eriksdotter line as well. My connection would be through Elisabet & Per Joensson Gyllensvard. Not a very elite group if there is 100,000 alive today. But very interesting. I will check the link and will look for any books on the subject. This has been most helpful.
 
Tack,
