History
The Koning van Zweden was a ship in the service of the Dutch West India Company (WIC) and it is mentioned several times in the 17th-century standard work on the WIC, Historie ofte Iaerlijck Verhael by J. de Laet. The last reference is that the ship arrived in Pernambuco from Hoorn in the Netherlands in 1634. It is not clear what became of the ship after that.
