  • Can anyone tell me if there is a female buried inside the Mariefreds Kyrka church, Beata SALINA was widow of Carl, Christopher Springer. He died and she became the Royal Housekeeper, at Gripsholm Castle, across Lake Malar from Stockholm; and when she died she was buried December 17 1693 before the choir of the church at Mariefred, near the castle. I cannot travel to Sweden but could someone check there or call the church? Thanks to anyone who can find out!!!
