Gedda is a Swedish noble family with Gude Axelsen Giedde (1510–1590) as earliest attested primogenitor. Georg Gedda was ennobled (n. 2168) by King Gustav IV Adolf of Sweden in 1797. [1]
Speculations of whether Gude Axelsen Giedde was the great-grandson of Erengisle Gädda of the Swedish noble Gädda family from Småland remain unattested. In any case, he became the asserted primogenitor of the Gedda family ennobled in 1791. [1]
