Leif Ericson

Leif Ericson was on a return trip from Greenland, where he'd been converting the natives to Christianity, back to Norway, when strong winds blew his boat off course. Instead of Norway, he ended up in Canada, and returned to Norway several months later to tell them about the experience.

Leif Eriksson's mothers name was Thjodhild.

nothing

As was tradition with the Vikings, Leif did not grow up with his family. Instead, when he was eight he moved in with a man named Thyrker. Thyrker was from Germany where Eric the Red had captured him, had taken him to Iceland, but had not enslaved him. Thyrker taught Leif everything he needed to know, including reading and writing runes, the Celtic and Russian tongue, and the ways of trade. Leif was also taught the old sagas, plant studies, and the use of weapons.

He led a group of Vikings, who were the first Europeans to land in North America.

No. Magnetic compasses weren't invented yet. He probably used a lodestone, which is a magnetic rock hung on a string.

He sailed under ether Greenland or Iceland. Some people think he sailed for him self, but I don't think they are right.

Nobody knows for sure but we can be pretty sure he retraced the voyage of Bjarni Herjulfsson. Bjarni saw North America but did not go ashore. Leif did, at Helluland, Markland and Vinland. He over wintered at Vinland and returned to Greenland in the spring.
