Balder 
Balder was born about 0243 in Scaninavia. Balder's father was Wuotan of Asgard and his mother was Frigg (Friege). His paternal grandparents were Ruler of the Scythians and Beltsa of Asgard; his maternal grandfather was Cadwalladr ap Lleuvar Mawr. He was an only child.General Notes
I've found references to Norse mythology attached to numerous genealogies for this family online. I'm including it here because it's a cute story, but I cannot believe anyone can take this seriously as far as our ancstors are concerned! However, I have read that there's usually some grain of truth in all myths so....Here ya go:
(CNW)
"Balder or Baldur, in Norse mythology, the god of light and joy, son of Odin and Frigga, king and queen of the gods. Having dreamed that Balder's life was threatened, Frigga extracted an oath from the forces and objects in nature, animate and inanimate, that they would not harm Balder, but she forgot the mistletoe. The gods, thinking Balder safe, cast darts and stones at him. The malicious giant Loki put a twig of mistletoe in the hands of Balder's twin, the blind Hoder, god of darkness, and directed his aim against Balder, who fell pierced to the heart. After the death of Balder, Odin sent another son, the messenger Hermod, to the underworld to plead for Balder's return. The god would be released only if everything in the world would weep for him. Everything wept except one old woman in a cave, and Balder could not return to life." (lifted from Ancestry.com/toni v)
