  1469 Lensmand på Koldinghus, Riddare DAA 1889 s 103-04-05 Danske adelsgodser i middelalderen, Erik Ulsig, Kbh.1968 s 218+219+271+291+399+450+463 Lage Esgesen Brok There seems to be some uncertainty about his mothers identity. DBL (vol. 4, pp. 134-5) suggests that he was the son of his father's second wife, and she is here named as Ellen Gyldenstierne, daughter of Henrik Knudsen G. Kirsten Pedersdatter H÷g, mentioned in Raneke as the second wife of Esge, Lage's father, is in stead in DBL recorded as Lage's second wife. According to the same source he was married 1stly, before 1460, to Else Laxmand (died after 1 July 1466), daughter of Poul Laxmand and Lisbet Eriksdatte Krummedige. Further to this DBL states the following regarding Lage: Alread in 1460 he was written at his ancestral estate of Essendrup. His other estates were Bregenholm, Aarhus parish and Vemmetofte, which he inherited in 1472. His family inheritance interested him the most and he is a prominent character in Gl. Estrups History. He began the construction of the still preserved main building and enthusiastically collected estates in the neaar vicinity. In 1469 he was given 'Birkebrev' [confirmation letter? -trans.] of his estates in Favsing and Avning parishes. His energy as a Lord of the Manor was coupled with a, even for that time, unbelievable brutality. He is particularly known for his long feud with the Rosenkrantz family, who, with their extensive possessions, were always in his way. His opposition was mainly against Ottr Nielsen and Erik Ottese. His feud with them is mentioned for the first time in 1460 when a complaint is made that L.B. and sixteen henchmen laid siege to Sir Otte's estate of Bj÷rnholm. Throughout the following fifteen years the Rosenkrantz family and tenants were subjected to L.B.'s animosity and he had many of them imprisoned or flogged. In 1468 he slew with his own hand a rich merchant at Randers, Mr. Niels Paaske. He was furthermore accused of harbouring outlaws at his estate. After his death it became clear that he had forced the bailiff for County District S÷nderhald to w write a 'Kendelse' [judgement/proclamation/confession? -trans.] for his benefit. Under these circumstances the battle was only interrupted briefly now and again by payments of blood-money and temporary settlements. Not until 1475 at the personal intervention of King Christian was the feud stopped. L.B. who was mentioned as sheriff at Koldinghus in 1469 was knighted in 1486. Age and dignity did not, however, dampen his temperament. In 1496 he ws declared 'Tremarksmand' and as such proclaimed unworthy to fulfill duties for the courts.
