- From "Over hals og hoved", by Sigvard Mahler Dam (published in SAXO, 1991):
The Family's Arms:
In Klemensker Church there is on display a special seat, which previously had belonged to the owners of Simleg?rd and had embellished their pew in the church. The seat has 2 carved and painted arms with the initials "PH" and "MHD", which pertains to Chief Justice Peder Hansen (Uf) and his wife Mette HansDatter. The Uf-family's arms shows (an inverse, red chevron on a white field (58) and 2 red vesselhorns on its helmet), and his wife's arms shows the Bjergeg?rd-family's "geddek?ft" (pike's jawbone) or "halve hummerklo" (half lobster claw) arms (a white claw on a red field, and 2 white vesselhorns on the helmet). (59)
Notes:
58) Peder Hansen's seal displays an inverse chevron - probably to differentiate from the seal of his older brother, Oluf Hansen. For further information on the Uf-family arms see Heraldisk Tidsskrift 5:46, October 1982, p. 275 - folios "De bornholmske v?bnersl?gter Uf og Splid", by S. Mahler Dam, unfortunately my faith in the older researchers brought me to the wrong conclusion about Peder Hansen's parents' arms, as Mette Hansdatter is traditionally listed under the Myre-family.
59) Mette Hansdatter is mentioned in a high court judgement, dated June 15, 1582 (Herredags Dombog nr. 11, DaRA), as being the heir of Hans Myre, in a fight over Fuglsangsg?rd in Ibsker. However, this does not necessarily mean she is his daughter, as Hans Myre was first mentioned in 1511 and was dead by 1531, and she could hardly have been of age at that time. Hans Myre could possibly be a relative of Peder Myre, who was mentioned in 1489, and therefore we might assume that Lars and Hans Pedersen's mother was the daughter of Hans Myre, which harmonizes with the fact that Bendt Hansen in 1565 was residing in Ibsker (at Fuglsangsg?rd?), which his brother-in-law Peder Hansen (Uf) later bought from him.
