    Notes 
    • Snorri says Olaf (Treefeller) got a wife Solva or Solveig, a daughter of Halfdan Guldtand. Halfdan was a son of Solve Solvarson, son of Solve the Old. [1][2]

      Halfdan Guldtand skall ha haft en dotter, Solveig eller Sölva, som gifte sig med Olof Trätälja och fick sönerna Ingjald och Halvdan Vitben. Enligt Snorre blev Ingjald kung i Värmland, medan Halvdan till slut blev kung i Romerike och Vestfold, och efter Ingjalds död även i Värmland. [3]

      Research Notes
      His ancestors that are all named Solve are part of the almost certainly constructed part of Ynglinga Saga which has the Swedish Ynglinga line suddenly relocate to Norway. The genealogy is likely constructed to give the Norwegian Ynglinga line a link of descendancy from Solve the Old of Solør.
