Text source

Gustav Jeffereys was the son of Brigadier General Sir James Jeffereys [SSNE 4904]. It is not clear if Gustav returned to Ireland with his father in 1690, but he certainly served as a soldier in the Swedish army in 1700, being killed at Narva that year. He had two brothers, Charles [SSNE 7268] and James [SSNE 4902]
