Just some general corrections for the "af Sverker" dynasty which is missing some spouses and children.
Sverker the Older
Sverker I was the first king in the family. He was married to Ulfhilde and had four children with her. Three of them are missing. Sverker remarried and had at least two children with his second spouse, only one is missing.
For the second marriage to be possible the divorce between Volodar and Richeza must be represented. She (under the influence of her brother) divorced him around the time when the Rurikovich lost some power in the east (I couldn't find any evidence of power decline in game, but apparently it was around 1145).
Apparently Sverker had Sune with his second spouse, but we was currently born in 1132 which is way too early. Wikipedia suggest his birth was around 1154 and since we don't know when he died 1205 is a good idea for a date (he'd be 50 then).
The IDs are all free. These are going to represent Sverker the Older's four missing children. Johan, the designated heir who was murdered in a peasant rabble (apparently he wasn't too kind or too popular with the people). Burislev, a child from the second marriage who rivaled for the throne between 1167-70 (disputed whether it was him or his nephew Burislev Johansson who tried to take the throne)and then either fled/moved/exiled to Poland to his relatives on the mother's side or was killed by the succeeding faction in Sweden to ensure an end of the rebellion and all claimants to the throne. Helena, married the danish king Knud V (IV in game because of bad linking in the danish culture list (apparently it's already known)), but had no children with him as he was murdered a year after the wedding and thus Helena moved back to Sweden and became a nun in Vreta convent where her sister was prioress. Ingegärd, prioress at Vreta convent and died in 1204.
This is Helena's spouse, the King. They married in 1156, but the marriage was childless.
Sverker the Younger
Sverker's son, Karl, had one son named Sverker (commonly known as "the younger" when he became king in memory of his grandfather). He's lacking his historical spouses, Benedicta and Ingegärd, and at least two children. He was dethroned in 1208, but died 17th of July 1210 in battle trying to reclaim the throne (even the pope tried to help him regain power).
Sverker the younger's first wife was a distant relative through his mother from the danish Hvide family. They married when Sverker was in exile in Denmark. She died in 1199 presumably during childbirth.
With Benedicta Sverker had at least Helena.
According to the wiki she was born around 1180 (10 years later than her current birth date) and died after 1210 suggested 7 April 1230.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ingegerd_Birgersdotter_of_Bjelbo
With Ingegärd Sverker had at least Johan.
It's believed (but not confirmed as with most sources) that Sverker and Benedicta had a daughter named Margareta who married some Mecklenburger prince. Currently she's the daughter of Esben Snare (Hvide). It's also possible (but not as possible) that she was just a kinswoman of Benedicta's, but one thing is clear... Esben Snare only had two daughters, Ingeborg and Caecilie, and both of them married the Ulfeldt brothers Peder and Anders Strangesen so it's impossible that it was Esben's daughter. I suggest making Margarete a daughter of Sverker and Benedicta and make change her culture to Swedish and tweak her name a bit. If the devs disagree they can always ignore this and leave it as it is now.
http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margareta_Sverkersdotter - Here is her Swedish Wikipage which argue that she was a daughter of Sverker born in 1192 and died in 5th of March 1232 as in game (It speaks for itself that she was most likely a daughter of Sverker and Benedicta), however the sources is a bit.. lacking.
ID is free. He's a missing son of Sverker and Benedicta who is said to have been murdered in the Trondheim Mountains (fancy that) in 1198. It's also said that he married at least one of King Sigurd II of Norway's daughters, but considering he's 13 when can be as old as 13 when he dies it sounds a suspicious.

Summary and Sources
More can be done (e.g. employers and exiled in specific courts), but I feel this is as good as I can get it to the next patch.
