Thord Freyspriest

Thord Freyspriest is attested in Njál's Saga as an ancestor of Flosi. His genealogy traces a patrilineal descent through Auzur, Asbjorn Eyjangr, Bjorn, Helgi, Bjorn the Roughfooted, and Grim, the Lord of Sogn (Njál's Saga, Endnotes). This lineage connects Flosi to the lords of Sogn through a line of notable ancestors. Thord Freyspriest is also associated with Swinefell, the farmstead that serves as a key location in the saga.
