Also known as Asser Rig Skjalmsen Hvide. Asser was a Jarl and chieftain from Zealand, Denmark, a son of Skjalm Hvide (c1045 – c1113) and Signe Asbjørnsdatter (c1050 – c1096).
Asser married Inger Eriksdotter (c. 1100–1157), the daughter of Eric, the Jarl of Falster, and Princess Cecilia Knutsdatter, a daughter of King Canute IV of Denmark.
Asser and Inger settled to live in Fjenneslev, Zealand, where they erected the Fjenneslev Church (Fjenneslev Kirke) in Sorø. They gave birth to Absalon (c. 1128–1201), who became a powerful warrior leader and main advisor to Danish kings, and also Bishop of Roskilde and later Archbishop of Lund. The other two children of Asser and Inger were Esbern Snare (c. 1127–1204) and Ingefred Assersdatter (c. 1130-1160).
