Drowned on a seavoyage to Copenhagen.
It is not known with certainty who Mads Jensen Kofoed's (born
possibly 1513? or 1517?- died before 1573, possibly 1552?) parents
were: The historian Giessing, in 1786, states that Mads Jensen
Kofoed was the son of Jens Madsen Kofoed (1481-1519) and grandson of
Mads Jensen Kofoed of Hasle. According to Julius Bidstrup's
"Familien Koefoed A og B" (published in 1887) his parents might be
Jens Madsen Kofoed and Johanne Thygesdatter, but he is not certain.
Also, J?rn Klindt in his book "P¯ sporet af de f?rste Kofod'er"
(published in 1979) has his doubts on this matter, and can not state
for a fact that any of this is true. Current evidence suggests that
it is likely that Mads Jensen Kofoed was born 1513 in Lund, Sk¯ne
province; however, his parentage is still far from certain. In 1572 a


meeting was held by Bornholm's Parliament to establish who had the
right to the status of "Frimand" (Free-man) on Bornholm: Mads Jensen


Kofoed's sons Jens and Hans Kofoed were in attendance at that
meeting. Of course, that meeting had a broader purpose: a war in
which Lübeck and Danmark had fought side-by-side had ended two yea
previously, and there was another three years before the Lübeck 50
year claim to Bornholm was to expire; although Lübeck claimed that it


had been given a further 50 years. In this predicament it was wise
for the King to establish locally situated allies; and Bornholm's
influential free-men, who normally would have been snubbed by the
King and the true nobility, were now in a position to receive
benevolent treatment from the Danish government. At the
"Frimandsm?det" held on September 6, 1572 there were 17 men named as
being in attendance: the brothers Jens and Hans Madsen Kofoed, Peder
Poulsen Kofoed, Oluf Bagge, Peder Uf, Peder Myre, J?rgen Gagge, also
ten other men only listed by their father's name; and at which
occassion three Danish Parlimentary advisers (Rigsr¯der) had been
sent to preside over the meeting. The Kofoeds had no written proof
of their free-men status; they were only able to give heartfelt and
solemn words about faithful service. It seems they had an inkling of


things to come, and therefore begged the King not to let himself be
"seduced" by Lübeck's representative Sweder Ketting, "because you
might expect that Lübeck only plotted to keep our island under the
yoke." This is the first record in which we find the Kofoeds being
mentioned as "frim?nd". We know that they were related to Oluf Bagge


and Peder Uf, and probably to several of the others. The question
remains: did they already have claim to free-man status, or did they
take advantage of the King's need for loyal followers - seeking
acknowledgement of that status from their peers on Bornholm? It
seems that they had to make certain commitments to the King in
exchange for the full rights to free-man status. Two of the newly
appointed free-men had an important mission to Lübeck the following
year. On September 6, 1573 King Frederik 2. wrote a letter to Lübeck


stating: "Our citizens, the brothers Peter and Jens Kofoth" have
applied to Lübeck's government for verification of their vital
statistics, so as, among other things, they are free to serve their
King - who then requests the Lübeck council to give sympathetic
consideration to their case and verify their births in Lübeck's
records. We often find such vital statistics proofs attached to the
documents in probate court cases, they were actually signed by the
parish "Elders" before the church parish registers (kirkeb?ger) came
into use. They were especially essential if disagreement arose among


the heirs. In the Lübeck family registry for 1573 we find the
following entry: Kofoedt, Matthias, dead before 1573 on Bornholm,
his wife: Johanna; their children: Peter, Jens, Boel - married to
Oluf Bagge; Anneke - married to Michael Abraham. The reason that the


family is registered in Lübeck exactly in 1573 is of course the
application the brothers made that same year for their vital
statistics. According to J?rn Klindt's "P¯ sporet af de f?rste
Kofod'er" it appears that Gunhild Uf and Mads Kofoed were already
married by 1547. The Lübeck legal-registry of 1573 states that a
woman named Johanne was Mads Kofoed's wife and mother to four of his
children; so accordingly it is not absolutely certain who was the
mother of which of Mads Kofoed's children. The fact that in 1573
Johanne was stated as the mother of Mads Kofoed's children may be a
reflection of their legal relationship, rather than blood ties. Nor
is it known for a fact which wife came first: Gunhild Uf or Johanne
Jensdatter Myre? The exact birth years of his children are not
known, but they are all thought to have been born between 1540-50.
J?rn Klindt further writes that more information about Mads Kofoed is


surely there to be found in the archives of K?benhavn, or in Gottorp
and Potsdam - where the remnants of Lübeck's archives are now held.
As mayor for R?nne township Mads Kofoed was an influential man on
Bornholm, so it would be rather peculiar if there weren't more traces


of him to be found. It could be that he is the same person as the
Mads Kofoed known to have died during a sea-voyage to K?benhavn in
1552. Part of the difficulty in answering this question lies in the
fact that one Lübeck entry states he died "before 1573" and another
states "in 1573"; which is correct and which in error? Mr. Klindt
asks the following questions: What was the case of the vital
statistics about? Why was it that Hans Kofoed, who on Bornholm was
considered to be Jens Kofoed's brother, did not appear on the 1573
Lübeck registry as part of the family? But, of course, who will
research this? Who has the ability, resources, inclination, and
time? His son Jens Kofoed is known to have died in 1625, an old man
around 80 years old. The same is said of Hans Kofoed who died in
1623, and he is with greater certainty considered to be the son of
Gunhild Uf, as he is not mentioned in the Lübeck registry of 15
a son of Johanna and Mads Kofoed. Hans Kofoed has been listed by
Bornholm's first historian Rasmus Ravn (who lived from 1603-77) to be


the brother of the Judge Jens Madsen Kofoed; that he was not listed
in the Lübeck family registry of 1573 makes for a stronger case th
he was in fact half-brother to Jens Madsen Kofoed. Further proof that


the two men were brothers can be seen by the fact that Hans Kofoed's
sons were made the heirs to Jens Madsen Kofoed's property. Chief
Justice Jens Kofoed had no direct heirs at the time of his death, so
the four sons of his brother Hans Kofoed, and a certain Albert Hansen


- on account of his wife Karina Mikkelsdatter, were made heirs to his


reportedly large fortune. For who else was there left in 1625 to
inherit? His brother Peder had long since died, as well as his
children. His sister Boel's children with Oluf Bagge had left the
island. His sister Anneke had married a Michael/Mikkel Abraham, a
common Bornholm name, and so a daughter from their marriage would
have been known as "Mikkelsdatter", which leads us to Karina being
Jens Kofoed's niece. Working from the facts as I know them leads me
to the following two possible senarios: 1) That Johanne Jensdatter
Myre was Mads Jensen Kofoed's first wife, they probably married
around 1540; they had four children and before 1547 Johanne dies.
Around 1547 Mads Kofoed marries Gunhild Uf - they have a son, Hans,
born around 1547-50. 2) That Gunhild Uf was Mads Jensen Kofoed's
first wife, they probably married around 1540; within a year of
giving birth to Hans, around1542, Gunhild Uf died. Mads Kofoed then,


around 1543, marries Johanne - with whom he had at least four
children who lived to adulthood. The first senario is generally
thought to be the most likely, but that is just a guess. The key to
this question is: Were Gunhild Uf and Mads Jensen Kofoed married
before or in 1547? In the land-registry testimony of Bornholm's Land-
Register, dated May 22, 1522, is mentioned a P. Kofod as mayor of
R?nne; but whether or not he was related to "Familien Koefoed A or B"


is not known. (H?bertz, Documentation of Bornholm's History, p. 63)

Claus Köller is recorded as being the Squire (godsejer: meaning

mentioned in records dating from 1470 to 1494. According to E.F.S.
Skovgaard the Bornholmer Köller-family has its roots in southern
Schleswig (now part of Deutschand/Germany) and is reckoned among the
nobility there. That family's coat-of-arms is a shield bearing a
french-lily and a helmet with two vessel-horns. Pomerania is an
historical region of the Baltic Sea, at its greatest extent
comprising the territory between Stralsund and the Vistula and
including Rügen Island. Occupied by Slavic and other peoples, the
entire area between Oder and Vistula conquered by Boleslav III of
Poland in 1119-23. In the 12th century the west part was penetrated
by Germans, who erected the Duchy of Pomerania (included territory on


both sides of the lower Oder). The east part came under the rule of
the Teutonic Knights, and was ceded to Poland in 1466 as part of west


Prussia.

Reference: KGD note
Mads Jensen Kofoed of Hasle is the earliest recorded Kofoed on
Bornholm. Giessing (published 1786) relates in his pedigree of the
"Family Kofoed," that the danish Noblemen with the "Koefoed'er" coat-
of-arms were of mingled blood with the Normans, those people who had


occupied Normandy. He relates further back: to when King William 1st
the Conqueror, in 1063, went from Normandy to England, there was
among the Norman nobility who followed him, one man with the name of
Arnfred Kofod Also, on an English monastery list are several Danish
names: Erik, Oluf, Svend of Essex, Ospern and Arnfred Kofod. It is
related that the Scottish king, Macbeth, agreed to hide Ospern in
Scotland, and that Svend became part of his royal staff. Arnfred
Kofod became a faithul servant of King Edward. However, it would be
impossible to establish any link between this man and the Bornholmer
family of the same name. The surname Kofoed stems from "KoFod" which
means "Cow's Foot". The origin of the name is not known, however the


hypothosis has been put forward that the original Kofod had some sort


of physical deformity, such as a club-foot. It seems that the old
Bornholm Kofoed families used the cow-foot as their coat-of-arms;
from obvious association with their name, rather than through their
connection to the Duchy of Holstein. There are many myths and errors
concerning the oldest Kofoed's on Bornholm. The book "P¯ sporet af
de f?rste Kofod'er" by J?rn Klindt (published 1979) is a scholarly
examination, which tries to clear up the many errors surrounding this


families genealogy. J?rn Klindt relates that it is thought that the
immediately preceading ancestors to the Kofoed'er of Bornholm
originated from the area around Hamburg, in the Duchy of Holstein. In


1286 there is mention of a knight, Albertus Koefoed; the Holstein'er
family attained the right to be armigerous and held various titles of


knighthood. Every couple of generations the family rose in status to


near nobility, only to then descended the social ladder; they never
broke into, and then maintained noble status. The Kofoed'er spread
east from the Hamburg area to Lübeck, Wismar, etc. along the north
Baltic coast-line of present day Germany and Poland. They also spread


up the Jylland peninsula into Schleswig and Danmark.
Kofod/Kofoed/Koefoed is a family-name that has spread all over
Danmark. There are numerous Kofoeds listed in the book of Danish
Knights. The Kofoed'er who settled in Bornholm had attained the
status of "Frim?nd", this meant that they were "free men" and had no
over-lord except the King of Danmark, and thus were of the lower
nobility. It should be noted here that such "frim?nd" would have were


not of the social class of the true titled nobility, and in fact
would have been snubbed by that rarified class of people. As free-
men the Kofoeds were one of the leading families of Bornholm, with
the right to own property, to engage in business and trade, to hunt
the forests and make use of the beaches, and were among the island's
brew-masters. They had the right to exact labour and duties from the


"bonde" (peasant farmers) who lived and worked on their farms. Of
course, over the succeeding years not all Kofoed descendants stayed
amongst the social elite, and they gradually fell to lower social
classes. To this day on Bornholm the surname "Kofoed" remains a
prestigious family-name.
