I was aware of the connection with Harald II Godwineson but that comes of being a historian! As you say, Gytha (Gita) married Vladimir and the other daughter married a Norman Baron, one of the Rufus family.

It's not known exactly what became of his sons although one may have ended up in the Rus and joined the Varangian guard.

What a fascinating place!
