Peder Spermand was born in Elsinore in 1608 of a Scottish family. He became Professor of history at Copenhagen in 1635 and died in 1661. It was perhaps his grandfather who was a Scot, but that is not clear.C.F. Bricka and J.A. Fredericia, Kong Christian den Fjerdes Egenhaendige Breve, vol. V, p.338; T. Riis, Should Auld Acquaintance be Forgot (Odense, 1988), II, p.295. Christian IV to Korfits Ulfeldt, 10 May 1643. Christian asked that Ulfeldt checked an enclosed geneology to the one which Professor Spermand has been asked to produce.
