"I Erikskrönikan karaktäriseras F som folkungarnas, dvs folkungapartiets upphovsman. Han har tydligen först efter Birger brosas son Knut jarls fall i slaget vid Lena 1208 blivit jarl och kämpade jämte sina anhängare på Erik Knutssons sida i slaget vid Gestilren, där han stupade".

Birger Brosa (Old Norse: Birgir Brósa where Brósa means "smiling"), jarl of Sweden 1174–1202, d. 9 January 1202 on Visingsö, was a son of Bengt Snivil and a member of the powerful House of Bjälbo. In the medieval texts he is either called the jarl of the Swedes or the jarl of the Swedes and the Geats.
Birger was appointed to the position of jarl during the reign of Knut Eriksson. He maintained the position during Knut's successor Sverker II until his death in 1202.
Before 1170, Birger was married to Brigida Haraldsdotter, the daughter of the Norwegian king Harald Gille. She had formerly been married to the Danish pretender Magnus Henriksson, who had briefly ruled in Uppsala 1160–1161.[1]
Birger appears to have maintained peace in Sweden during the civil wars that ravaged Denmark and Norway. Many of the pretenders in these kingdoms sought refuge with Birger. Among them were the Birkebeiner chieftains Eystein Meyla and Sverre Sigurdsson who were kinsmen of Brigida Haraldsdotter. Birger's son Philippus was in the service of King Sverre and died as his Earl in 1200. Birger owned estates in Östergötland, Närke, Värmland and Södermanland. He was a great donor to the convent of Riseberga in Närke, where Birgitta spent her last years after Birger's death. As soon as he was dead, a civil war broke out.[2]

Bridget Haraldsdotter, also Brigida (Swedish: Birgitta Haraldsdotter) (c. 1131 – c. 1208) was a medieval Swedish queen, spouse of King Magnus (II) of Sweden.
Brigida Haraldsdotter, was the illegitimate daughter of King Harald IV of Norway. Her mother is unknown, but she was possibly Tora Gudmundsdotter, long-term lover of her father and the mother of King Sigurd Munn. Her Irish first name was the same as that of her father's Irish mother, Brigida O'Brien (d. 1138). According to legend, she was first married to King Inge the Younger, but this is not considered possible; likely, her first marriage was to the Swedish Earl Karl Sunesson. She was married to Magnus Henriksen, son of her stepmother Ingrid Ragnvaldsdotter and Ingrid's first husband, Henrik Skadelår. Her spouse claimed the Swedish throne through his mother in 1160–61. After his death in 1161, she remarried the Swedish jarl Birger Brosa of Bjelbo. The daughter she had during her marriage to Brosa, Ingegerd Birgersdotter of Bjelbo, was to be Queen of Sweden in 1200.
In 1174, the Norwegian throne claimant Øystein Møyla, who claimed to be her nephew, asked for the support of her and her husband, which they also granted. In 1176, the Norwegian throne claimant Sverre of Norway did the very same thing. He was turned away at first, but in 1177, they advised the Birkebeiner to acknowledge Sverre as their King and gave him the support of them and of the Swedish King. Bridget's son Filippus would also join Sverre's service. Brosa died in 1202. In 1205, a conflict broke out between her daughter Queen Ingegerd and the Bjelbo family.
The dates of her birth and death are not known, though her daughter's birth year is set at c. 1180. The dates c. 1131–1208 have been suggested. After the death of her second spouse in 1202, she retired to the Riseberga Nunnery in Närke, where she died and was buried. [1]

Begravet:
Jorden till egendomen skänktes år 1202 av jarlen Birger Brosa, och hans maka änkedrottning Birgitta. Änkedrottning Birgitta blev nunna i Riseberga efter Birgers Brosas död 1202 och anses vara klostrets första kända nunna. Hon blev även gravsatt där.
