*Ulf Tostesson, the son of Skagul Toste
*Ragnvald Ulfsson, the son of Ulf Tostesson, and exiled to Staraja Ladoga by Olof Skötkonung

On the throne of Sweden or Västergötland:
*1060-1066 : Stenkil ("Stenkil Ragnvaldsson")
*1066-1067 : Eric Stenkilson ("Erik (VII) Stenkilsson"), theory that he is son of Stenkil is pure conjecture
*1067-1070 : Halsten Stenkilsson ("Halsten"), son of Stenkil
*1079-1084 : Inge I the Elder ("Inge (I) den äldre"), son of Stenkil

*1084-1087 : Blot-Sweyn ("Blot-Sven"), possibly brother-in-law of Inge I the Elder

*1110-1118 : Philip Halsten ("Filip Halstensson"), no children
*1110-1125 : Inge II the Younger ("Inge (II) den yngre"), no children

"Cognatic offshoots":
* c 1125 - c 1130 Magnus I of Gothenland (the king list published by the royal court of Sweden calls him as member of Stenkil dynasty), was son of Inge I's daughter
* c 1150 - 1160 Eric IX of Sweden who was married with Christina, according to Norse legends daughter's daughter of Inge I; this couple started the dynasty of Eric(* c 1155-67 Charles VII of Sweden (his mother was widow of Inge II) who married Kirsten Stigsdatter, according to Norse legends daughter's daughter's daughter of Inge I; this couple continued the in c 1130 ascended dynasty of Sverker)
* 1160-61 Magnus (II) of Sweden (the king list published by the royal court of Sweden calls him as member of Stenkil dynasty; some tend to call him as the "last" monarch of the House of Stenkil which however is a genealogically debatable concept), was son of daughter of Inge I's son Ragvald.
