Notes for KING EDWARD I:

[Mike Ashley, The Mammoth Book of British Kings & Queens,  (Carroll and Graf Publishers, New York, 1998), pgs. 470-472.]

[M24] EDWARD THE ELDER
King of the West Saxons 26 October 899-17 July 924.  Crowned: Kingston-upon-Thames, 8 June 900 (some sources say 31 May).
Born:  c871 or 872; Died: Farndon-on-Dee, 17 July 924, aged about 52.  Buried: Winchester Cathedral.

Married: (1) c894 (though date unknown), Egwina (d. c901) 'a noblewoman': 3 children; (2) c901/2, Elfleda (d. 920), dau. ealdorman Athelhelm: 10 children; (3) c920 Edgiva (905-968), dau. Sigehelm, ealdorman of Kent: 5 children.  Edward may also have had an illegitimate child.
Edward was the second son of ALFRED THE GREAT and was born about 871.  His elder brother, Edmund, apparently died in infancy, though one tradition asserts he lived long enough to be crowned as heir apparent.  In any case, the choice of his first two sons' names demonstrate Alfred's hopes for them.  Both names mean "protector" (mund) or "guardian" (ward) of "riches", showing that Alfred hoped his sons would guard the prosperity of the nation for the future.  Edward grew up firmly believing this.  He was a soldier from childhood, not a scholar like his father and grandfather, and he knew, once his brother died, that it was in his hands that the future of the nation rested.  He was child throughout the wars that his father waged with the Danes. and they would have left a vivid impression on his mind.  When the Danish problems arose again in 892 and 893 he commanded part of the army that captured the raiders.  The Saxons were therefore already accustomed to him as their leader.  However, after his father's death his succession did not go unchallenged.  His nephew, ATHELWOLD, the son of ATHELRED, was dissatisfied with the terms of Alfred's will and felt dispossessed.  He seized Wimborne manor and, though he was soon chased out of Wessex, he was accepted by the Danes and Angles of York as their leader and subsequently led a revolt amongst the Danes of East Anglia.  He remained a thorn in Edward's side until he was defeated and killed in 902, after which Edward was able to seal a peace treaty with the Danes of the east.  However the Danes of the north still defied Edward's sovereignty, ruling Jorvik as a separate Danish kingdom.  Throughout 909 the Danes tested Edward's resolve with a number of border raids and skirmishes, and eventually Edward moved against them, raising a vast army.  Edward harried Northumbria with little result.  The following year he was tricked by the Danish fleet moving down the east coast, while the main Danish army moved across Northumbria and into Mercia.  Edward realised the error and chased the Danes, catching them at Tettenhall in August 910, where he inflicted upon them one of their most crushing defeats, resulting in the deaths of the two Danish kings HALFDAN and EOWILS.  It was the end of the Danish hold on Jorvik, although soon after the Norse under RAGNALL moved in.
        The Norse had been expelled from Dublin in 902 and were now landless.  They first caused a nuisance in Wales and Scotland, but by 910 had become bold enough to enter Northumbria, and no sooner had Edward defeated one foe than another arrived.  Rather than take them on instantly, Edward decided to work on one plan at a time.  Since 905 Edward had been refortifying England.  He rebuilt Chester and, along with his sister, ATHELFLAED of Mercia, established a chain of fortified towns along the border with the Danelaw, including Runcorn, Tamworth, Stafford, Warwick, down to Hertford and over to Witham in Essex.  Even before these forts were finished Edward was able to use them as a base to defeat a major Danish army which moved across England into Wales in 914, but no matter where the army tried to inflict major destruction, Edward was there, and the army eventually moved out of Britain at the end of the year.  Most of the forts were completed by 915, and Edward progressively advanced into Danish territory.  The Danes responded and from 916 on a series of skirmishes occurred across middle England.  In almost all cases the English were victorious, with major successes at Leicester, Nottingham and Bedford.  Early on the Danish king, GUTHRUM II, was killed, and thereafter there was no co-ordinated strategy from the Danes.  Edward was able to pick off small bands of men one at a time.  Eventually the Danes submitted.  The year 920 saw the Danes of East Anglia and the Five Boroughs submitting to him.
        In 918, during the war with the Danes, Athelflaed had died, and though her daughter ELFWYNN technically succeeded, Edward could not consider a young girl in charge during such a difficult period.  Thus in 919 he assumed direct control over Mercia.  With similar authority over the Danes of the east midlands, Edward now ruled over half of England.  The Welsh princes, IDWAL FOEL, CLYDOG AP CADELL and HYWEL DDA, submitted to him, recognizing Edward as their overlord, for all that they remained sovereign princes.  Even in the north, Edward’s authority was recognized, though this was rather more tenuous.  Ragnall of York had tried to goad the Danes into further revolt but by 920 they recognized that Edward was the victor.  Ragnall realized his subterfuge would not succeed and recognized Edward as overlord; but his successor, SITRIC, did not.  This must have alarmed CONSTANTINE II of Scotland and DONALD MAC AED of Strathclyde, both of whom had suffered from the Norse and now felt that they needed Edward’s protection by acknowledging his supremacy.  Thus, by the year 922, Edward was overlord of all of Britain except for the Norse settlements of York, Orkney and the Western Isles.  It was a remarkable achievement for a man whose boyhood had been spent in hiding from the Danes.  Edward was a fitting son of Alfred and it was important that a strong king followed him to maintain and build upon his successes.  ATHELSTAN was such a king.
        Edward was married at least three times, though the legitimacy of the first is in question.  Of his many children, most were daughters, but of the sons who survived him, all of them – EDWIN, ELFWEARD, Athelstan, EDMUND and EADRED – succeeded him in some form within the Kingdom.

Notes for KING ATHELSTAN OF ENGLAND:

[Mike Ashley, The Mammoth Book of British Kings & Queens,  (Carroll and Graf Publishers, New York, 1998), pgs. 472, 474-475.]

[M26] ATHELSTAN
King of the English,  17 July 924-27 October 939.  Crowned: Kingston-upon-Thames, 4 September 925.
Born:  c895; Died: Gloucester, 27 October 939, aged 44.  Buried: Malmesbury Abbey, Wiltshire.

Athelstan, arguably the most powerful of all Saxon kings, was the eldest son of EDWARD THE ELDER, though there is a question about his legitimacy.  Edward may not have married Athelstan’s mother Egwina, and though she was later described as “a noblewoman”, the scandal-mongers of the day remembered her as a shepherd’s daughter whom Edward took a fancy to in his youth and who bore him two or perhaps three children.  Maybe it was because he was illegitimate that Athelstan was raised by Edward’s sister, ATHELFLAED, at her court at Gloucester in Mercia and not at Winchester.  Some authorities make much of the fact that Athelstan was a favourite of his grandfather’s, ALFRED, as if he preferred this child over the others and singled him out for succession; in fact Athelstan was the only grandchild Alfred knew, as all of Alfred’s other grandchildren were born after his death.  Nevertheless, because Athelstan was reared in Mercia he had a loyalty to the Mercians that his forebears had never received.  When Edward died, the Mercians immediately proclaimed him their king whilst the West Saxon witan were still deliberating.  No doubt, if Athelstan was illegitimate, there was an issue to resolve, and possibly Edward had suggested before his death that Athelstan would succeed him in Mercia whilst one of his legitimate sons would succeed him in Wessex.  EDWIN was already sub-king in Kent and the obvious choice but perhaps he declined (or, if his recorded death date is in error, he may have already been dead).  There is a suggestion that ELFWEARD the hermit was summoned to Winchester as a possible candidate, but he died en route, and thereafter there was no other choice but Athelstan, but he was not confirmed in Wessex until some months after his accession in Mercia.  Even then he was not crowned for over a year.  Just what the reluctance was amongst the West Saxons is not clear, and it may be that they just did not trust Athelstan.  There is no doubt that Athelstan’s strength of character may also have been a disadvantage, because he had a distrust for the Saxon nobility whom he treated with reserve, and they probably saw him as haughty and unwelcoming.  Yet to his subjects he was kind and generous, perhaps because of his own origins.  He was exceedingly generous to the church and delighted in giving gifts and receiving memorabilia.  Like Arthur he was an avid reader but also a collector of treasures he later donated to the church.  He was a tall, if thin, man with long golden hair and conveyed an image of a handsome, powerful knight.  It may be something of Athelstan who lives on in our folk memory of Sir Lancelot.
       No sooner was Athelstan ensconced as king than we find his authority recognized by SITRIS CAECH of York, the Norse king who refused to recognize Edward’s sovereignty.  Sitric recognized that Athelstan’s power base in Mercia gave him a much greater ability to attack Northumbria if necessary.  Sitric and Athelstan thus agreed terms and as part of the arrangement Sitric was married to Athelstan’s saintly sister Eadgyth on 30 January 926.  The alliance with Sitric did not last for long, as he refused to accept Christianity, and by March 927 he was dead.  Sitric’s brother, Gothfrith, who was king of Dublin, attempted to claim the throne of York, but Athelstan defeated him and, after showing him hospitality, despatched him back to Ireland.  During this episode Athelstan summoned the kings of Scotland and Strathclyde to Eamont Bridge in July 927 and made them swear that they would not support Gothfrith in his designs upon the throne of York.  Athelstan entered York, the first Saxon king to do so, since all previous kings before the Scandinavians had been Angles.
       During 926 Athelstan had summoned the Welsh princes to a meeting at Hereford.  Although the three primary rulers had previously paid homage to Edward, there had been a Norse uprising in 924 supported by the Welsh at Chester.  Athelstan was determined to put a stop to Welsh hostilities in Mercia.  At Hereford he laid down the boundary between Wales and England, particularly the southern stretch which had always been in dispute, where he now specified the Wye, and he exacted harsh tribute from the princes.  It is not clear how far they ever met this demand, but it was evident that they recognized Athelstan’s authority.  HYWEL DDA in particular was fascinated by the Saxon court, appreciating its possibilities in Wales, and he learned much from Athelstan that he was able to put into practice.  Immediately after this agreement, Athelstan hurried to Devon where the Cornish were again in revolt, probably under their king HOEL.  Athelstan expelled the Cornish from Exeter.  Driving (sic) them back over the Tamar, which now became the boundary between Cornwall and England.  He refortified Exeter and it seems he may have taken Hoel hostage to ensure the Cornish compliance, because Hoel was with him a year later at Eamont Bridge.
       The alliance with the Scots lasted for seven years, a remarkable period of peace and prosperity in England during which time Athelstan reviewed his troops, improved his fortifications and generally settled down to the government of his subjects.  It seems that Athelstan also made friends with the king of Norway, Harald Fairhair of Finehair, who sent gifts to Athelstan and also adopted the current vogue for fostering by sending his son, Haakon, then aged about seven, to Athelstan’s court to benefit from understanding the English form of government.  One consequence of this was that Haakon became such a welcome king in Norway that the elders deposed his brother, ERIK BLOODAXE, who immediately becomes (sic) a problem for Athelstan’s successors.  This was but one example of Athelstan’s role in Europe.  Because of a series of political marriages amongst his aunts and his own sisters, Athelstan was on close terms with many of the major rulers in Europe.  These included Count Baldwin of Flanders, who had married his aunt Elfreda, Charles III of France, who had married his sister Edgiva, the influential Hugh, Count of Paris, who had married another sister, Edhilda, and Otto, duke of Saxony and subsequently German emperor, who had married a further sister Eadgyth.  There was another possible half-sister who married Gorm the Old, the first king of a united Denmark.  All of this demonstrates that Athelstan was a key activist on the international scene, and though it is not recorded that he traveled abroad, his relationships improved trade and culture in England extensively.
       In 934 Athelstan was incensed when the Scottish king CONSTANTINE married his daughter to OLAF GOTHFRITHSON of Dublin, which Athelstan saw as a flagrant breach of the Eamont treaty.  He decided to give Constantine a lesson and in 934 he raised a huge army which increased in numbers as he marched north from Winchester, and he devastated Scotland en route as far north as Fordun.  Constantine recognized Athelstan’s power, but it only made him all the more determined to seek the support of Olaf as a defence against the English might.  In 937, after the death of Gothfrith, Olaf combined his army with Constantine’s.  He took York and marched down into Mercia.  Athelstan met him at Brunanburh, near Nottingham.  It was one of the most decisive of all Saxon victories, and passed into legend.  From then until his death two years later Athelstan ruled peacefully, the complete master of his realm.  Athelstan’s reign was remembered by later annalists as a golden age, and certainly there would be little like it again for many years to come.  Athelstan died of an illness, probably a manifestation of the same malady which afflicted his family, many of whom died young.  He was only forty-four.  Athelstan had never married, and he was succeeded by his half-brother EDMUND.

Notes for KING EDWIN OF ENGLAND:

[Mike Ashley, The Mammoth Book of British Kings & Queens,  (Carroll and Graf Publishers, New York, 1998), pg. 226.]

[G31] EDWIN, sub-king of Kent, c920-933.
There is a suggestion that Edwin was made the sub-king of Kent by his father EDWARD THE ELDER. He was the oldest surviving legitimate son (born about the year 902), if we accept the belief (not necessarily proven) that his half-brother ATHELSTAN was illegitimate.  Granting him the kingship of Kent was recognizing him as the heir to the throne.  Since he did not succeed, we may assume that Edwin was content in his own kingdom and did not wish to rule England.  Nevertheless Athelstan may have regarded him as a potential problem or, perhaps in later years (if we assume the date of his death is properly recorded and not an error for 933 [sic]) he became a threat.  He drowned at sea while crossing to Flanders and there was a strong rumour that the boat was made unseaworthy at Athelstan's orders.  Edwin's body was recovered and buried at St Bertin's Abbey in Flanders.

[Mike Ashley, The Mammoth Book of British Kings & Queens,  (Carroll and Graf Publishers, New York, 1998), pg. 472.]

[M25] ELFWEARD Wessex, 17 July-1 August 924
Elfweard was the third surviving son of EDWARD THE ELDER, and some sources suggest that he was elected the heir to the throne of Wessex by the witan.  If this is so, then it was a strange choice, as Elfweard had been a bookish boy.  He had been born sometime around the year 904 and was supposed to be a hermit in Bridgnorth.  If he was elected, he had little chance to assume the crown.  He died – there is a suggestion that he may have been murdered, perhaps at the suggestion of his brother ATHELSTAN – sixteen days later at Oxford, presumably on his way back to Winchester, where he was buried.

Although Eadred was a physically weak king, almost unable to eat his food, he was every bit the warrior like his brothers EDMUND and ATHELSTAN and his father EDWARD (THE ELDER).  Most of his short reign was involved with the Norse kingdom of York.  Edmund had ejected the Norse kings and brought York under his control.  At the start of his reign Eadred traveled (sic) north and sought the fealty of Wulfstan, the archbishop of York, and of York’s witan (council).  Although they professed loyalty, within a few months they had appointed the Norse adventurer, ERIK BLOODAXE, as their king.  Eadred regarded this as treachery and immediately raised an army and invaded Northumbria.  He avoided attacking York but instead laid waste to the surrounding lands.  On his return to Mercia his rearguard was attacked by Norse troops.  Eadred was livid.  His weak constitution had nevertheless created a man of iron will, vicious temper and little patience.  His troops turned back on York and Eadred threatened to destroy the kingdom.  The elders of York knew he was capable of it and they agreed to eject Erik.  Satisfied, Eadred returned to Wessex, however within months the former king of York, ERIK SITRIKSON, returned and was re-installed.  Rather than inflict another invasion Eadred bargained with Olaf, prepared to let him remain provided he patrolled the shores against other Norse and Danish pirates, particularly Erik Bloodaxe.  The people of York did not seem to know what they wanted, and the internal politics of Wulfstan’s party were becoming intolerable.  In 952 Wulfstan ejected Olaf and brought Erik back into power.  Infuriated Eadred invaded York in 954.  Wulfstan was imprisoned.  Erik was expelled, and on his way back to Orkney he was slain.  The English, Norse and Danes of York readily accepted Eadred as their king and the Scandinavian kingdom of Jorvik was at an end.  Eadred ruled it directly, whilst he allowed Oswulf a high degree of autonomy in ruling Bernicia as an earl.  With the final expulsion of the Norse kings, Eadred could justifiably be called king of all the English.  Like his brother, though, he would not live to enjoy his glory.  He died in November 955, aged only 32 or so.  Despite his valour in battle he was a strongly religious man, suffering his pains with piety.  He apparently never married and after his death the throne passed to his even weaker nephews, EDWY and EDGAR.

[M27] EDMUND (I) THE MAGNIFICENT
King of the English, 27 October 939-26 May 946.  Crowned: Kingston-upon-Thames, 29 November 939
Born:  c92;  Died: murdered Pucklechuurch, 26 May 946, aged about 24.  Buried: Glastonbury Abbey.
Married: (1) c940, Elgiva (d. c944/5): 3 children; (2) c946, Athelfleda dau. Alfgar, ealdorman of Wiltshire: no children.
The name Eadmund in Saxon meant “protector of riches” giving an indication of Edmund’s presumed role as guardian of the realm.  Edmund was the half-brother of ATHELSTAN, and the first child of EDWARD THE ELDER’s third marriage.  He had been raised in Athelstan’s household and once old enough had accompanied Athelstan in several of his campaigns, fighting heroically at Brunanburh in 937.  As Athelstan had no children, Edmund succeeded him, even though he was only eighteen.  His reign vegan inauspiciously, as the Norse king of Dublin, OLAF GOTHFRITHSON, regarded him as a weak successor and took the opportunity to regain his family’s hold on York.  This he did in little over a month after Edmund’s succession, followed by his army’s march down into Mercia, devastating countryside and towns, including Tamworth, before they were confronted by Edmund at Leicester.  A rather ineffectual siege followed from which Olaf and his chief adviser, Wulfstan, archbishop of York, escaped.  Talks followed which resulted in Olaf being allowed to retain kingship over York, as well as rule over the Danish territories in East Anglia and the Five Boroughs.  The Danes were none too pleased about this, as they were enemies of the Norse.  Nevertheless, Edmund managed to recover from this ignominy.  After only eighteen months, Olaf died.  His successor, OLAF SITRICSON, was not quite his match.  Edmund undertook a lightning strike across Mercia in 942 and recovered the Danish territories.  Soon after Olaf was driven out of York, and replaced by his cousin, RAGNALL GOTHFRITHSON, who was open to discussion with Edmund and more prepared to accept Christianity.  Olaf took refuge in the kingdom of Strathclyde where guerilla warfare now existed between the Norse factions.  Edmund took this as an opportunity to resolve the problem once and for all.  In 944 he led an army into northern Britain.  In the battle in York Ragnall was killed and York came back under Saxon control.  The following year the army marched on Strathclyde.  Olaf was driven out and back to Ireland.  The king DONALD was also ejected, and Edmund conquered all of the Norse lands in Cumbria.  These he handed to the new Scots king MALCOLM (I)on the basis that he would remain faithful to Edmund and not support the Norse.
        From an ignominious start, Edmund’s reign now looked highly successful.  He had regained the territories that he had lost and was recognized as overlord by all the native kings.  At twenty-four he should have been set for an auspicious reign, but then tragedy struck.  In May 946 Edmund was celebrating the feast of St Augustine at Pucklechurch, north of Bath.  During the feast he recognized a thief called Leoga whom Edmund had exiled six years earlier.  Edmund asked his steward to arrest the man but a fight followed in which Edmund intervened and was stabbed.  He soon died of his wounds.  Edmund had two infant sons, EDWY and EDGAR, both of whom would become kings, but he was succeeded by his brother EADRED.

Notes for KING EDWY OF ENGLAND:

[Mike Ashley, The Mammoth Book of British Kings & Queens,  (Carroll and Graf Publishers, New York, 1998), pgs. 477-478.]

[M29]  EDWY or EADWIG ALL-FAIR
King of the English, 23 November 955-1 October 959.  Crowned:  Kingston-upon-Thames, 26 January 956.
Born:  c941.  Died:  Gloucester, 1 October 959, aged 18.  Buried:  Winchester Cathedral.
Married:  c957, Elgiva (descendant of Athelred I) (d. 959): annulled, no children.
Edwy was the eldest son of EDMUND I and with the untimely death of EADRED he ascended to the throne at the age of only fourteen.  The ASC (1) states that Edwy succeeded to Wessex and his brother EDGAR succeeded to Mercia and Northumbria, but as Edgar was almost two years Edwy’s junior, his succession was held in abeyance until he was older.  In effect the two kings, and particularly Edwy, were advised by a strong council, which included Dunstan, the abbot of Glastonbury.  Since these two were as headstrong as each other, and as intransigent, it led to considerable personal conflict.  Edwy’s relationship with Dunstan started poorly – apparently at his coronation. Edwy disappeared from the council and was found consorting with a young lady – and got worse.  Edwy could not work with Dunstan and had him banished from England in 957.  All of Edwy’s reign seemed to be a jockeying for position between himself and his council of elders, most of whom had the upper hand.  Edwy himself never achieved anything.  He married his childhood sweetheart, Elgiva, but this was annulled within a year on the grounds of consanguinity – they were third cousins.  It suggests that the elders, particularly Oda, the archbishop of Canterbury, did not want Edwy to father children, perhaps because of the continuing problem of health or, more likely, because these would threaten his brother’s right to the throne, and it seems that by 959 the elders were now firmly behind Edgar.  It thus may have come as a relief when Edwy died in October 959.  He was only eighteen, and it has usually been accepted that he died of the inherent family malady, but the growing opposition to him may suggest he was helped on his way.  Most of the churchmen who wrote Edwy’s obituaries had less than fond memories of him, but his brother-in-law, who became Athelweard who called Edwy “All-Fair”, or “the Fair”, a word which in Saxon did not just refer to his fair complexion, but which also meant pleasant and mild-mannered.  Edwy comes across the centuries as an uncertain king trapped in a weak body surrounded by officialdom, knowing he could not live up to the glory of his forebears, but unable to find consolation, other than with his wife and mother-in-law.  He was a sad and tragic king.

Notes for KING EDGAR OF ENGLAND:

[Mike Ashley, The Mammoth Book of British Kings & Queens,  (Carroll and Graf Publishers, New York, 1998), pgs. 478-480.]

[M30]  EDGAR THE PEACEABLE
King of the English, 1 October 959-8 July 975 (he was appointed king of Mercia and Northumbria from 957).  Crowned:  Bath Abbey, 11 May 973.
Born:  c943.  Died:  Winchester, 8 July 975, aged 32.  Buried:  Glastonbury Abbey.
Married:  (1) c960, Athelfleda dau. Ordmaer, ealdorman of Hertford: either divorced c961 or died c961 or c964: 1 son; (2) c964, Elfrida (c. 945-c1002), dau. Ordgar, ealdorman of Devon, and widow of Athelwald, ealdorman of East Anglia: 2 children.  Also had at least one illegitimate child.
The Saxon name Eadgar means “rich in spears”, which was undoubtedly a recognition of his inheritance of military power.  When Edgar’s uncle EADRED died in 955, his brother EDWY became king in Wessex and unpopular king.  Edgar had been raised in East Anglia, in the household of Athelstan, the ealdorman of the old territory of the Danelaw which covered all of east Anglia and Danish Mercia.  As such Edgar was already a popular prince amongst the middle-English and Danes and was readily accepted as king, whereas Edwy was seen as a weak and troublesome youth.  By November 957 the Mercians and Northumbrians had renounced their allegiance to Edwy.  Both kings were advised (or controlled) by a strong council which had led to conflict with Edwy who had expelled bishop Dunstan.  When Edgar came of age he recalled Dunstan and was enthusiastic about his ideas for reforming the English church.  When Edwy died in October 959, Edgar also became king of Wessex and as the archbishopric of Canterbury was vacant with the recent death of Oda, Dunstan was appointed to that see.  With the support of the king, Dunstan introduced a major programme of monastic reform, not all of which was happily accepted at the time, but which brought Saxon England in line with developments on the continent.  All secular clergy were ejected, and the church officials were granted considerable independence from the crown.  The most extreme of these was the creation of the soke of Peterborough, where the abbot of St Peters had almost total independence.  Many of the monasteries that had been destroyed during the Danish invasions were restored.  It was only a period of peace that could allow such rebuilding and change.  Edgar, for all that he was not a soldier or strategist to match his father or grandfather, was able to work alongside strong and well organized ealdorman in governing the kingdom and in ensuring its safety.  All the time England seemed in capable hands, the Norse and Danes bided their time.
        In 973 Edgar gave a demonstration of authority.  Although he probably had a formal coronation when he became king of Wessex, Dunstan believed there was a need for a major ceremony similar to those of the King of the Franks and the German Emperor.  The ceremony was delayed for some years because Dunstan was unhappy with Edgar’s dissolute life.  For all he supported the church reform Edgar was not a particularly religious man.  There were rumours about his private life, which may have some base of truth.  He had married a childhood friend, Athelfleda, early in life, but it seems that either she died in childbirth around the year 961 or the two became separated because of Edgar’s amorous adventures with Wulfryth.  Stories were later attached to the episode that Edgar had seduced a nun, the real story seems to be that he fell in love with a lady who bore him a child, but she either chose to enter (or was banished to) a nunnery and they probably never married.  Edgar then became romantically entangled with Elfrida, who was already married, and again the scandalmongers hinted that the two might have planned the murder of her husband, Edgar’s one-time foster-brother Athelwald in 964, in order to marry.  Elfrida later came to epitomize (sic) the image of the wicked stepmother in her relationship with Edgar’s youngest child, EDWARD (THE MARTYR).  All of these shenanigans caused Dunstan to counsel Edgar to change his ways.  Perhaps as he passed from youth into adulthood he became less reckless, and in 973 Dunstan agreed to a major ceremony at Bath.  The coronation had double significance.  For the first time a Saxon king was crowned as king of all the English, a title used by previous monarchs but never as part of their coronation.  Edgar was thus the first genuine king of England.  At the same time Elfrida was also crowned, the first queen of the English.  This ceremony has remained essentially the same in content ever since.  Following the coronation, Edgar put on a display of force.  His army marched along the Welsh border from Bath to Chester, showing his authority over the Welsh, whilst his fleet sailed through the Irish Sea, also demonstrating his subjugation of the Norse who still held power in that area at Dublin and on Man.  At Chester eight kings of Wales and the north assembled to make their submission to him.  A later chronicler suggested that these eight kings then rowed Edgar along the river Dee with him at the helm.  Strong though that image is, it is unlikely.  It is more probable that there was a ceremonial voyage along the Dee with Edgar at the helm, and the other kings in submission.  The coronation and ceremony were immensely significant.  Although Edgar’s position had been achieved by his predecessors, he was able to capitalise on it and demonstrate his authority over all of Britain with the exception of Orkney.  Not all monarchs were present, the most noticeable absentee being OWAIN AP HYWEL of Deheubarth, though his absence was due to domestic strife rather than lack of respect.  THORFINN SKULL-SPLITTER was not present, but as he owed his allegiance to the Norwegian crown, he might be excused – although, interestingly, MAGNUS HARALDSSON of Man and the Isles was present.
        The ceremony marked the end of a peaceful and prosperous reign, and it was fortunate that the English could not see ahead as Edgar’s was the last reign of peace and harmony.  The Saxon world would thereafter start to disintegrate and within less than a century be almost wiped away.

Edward was the son of EDGAR and his first wife Athelfleda.  Although he was the rightful heir there was opposition to his election as king, with much support for his half-brother ATHELRED (II).  Athelred was only seven at this time and evidently the ealdormen who wanted him as king, wanted the power that went with it.  Edward was thirteen, but old enough not to be trampled over.  He was a precocious and ungovernable youth given to temper tantrums, and he soon had considerable opposition amongst his council.  For the superstitious there were other signs and portents.  In the autumn of his election there was bright comet in the sky, always an ill omen.  In the following year there was famine across England, presumably the result of a harsh winter and a wet summer.  Some may have seen this as a message from God of dissatisfaction with the reform of the monasteries which had been carried out with such zeal under EDGAR’S reign.  Those who had been opposed to the reform used this as an opportunity to attack the church, and many monasteries were pillaged.  By the end of 976 lawlessness seems to have broken out across the land.  Dunstan alone stood firm in support of the king and of his reforms.  There is a wonderful story of how Dunstan demonstrated his authority when he called a meeting of the leading councilors (sic) at Calne, in the year 978.  They met in an upper room and during the meeting the floor gave way so that many of the councilors (sic) were killed or injured, all save Dunstan who was standing on the one rafter that remained intact.  It was proclaimed a miracle.  Even if it was deliberately engineered Dunstan was taking a severe risk.  He was aged about seventy by then.
       That same year Edward was murdered.  He was calling on his stepmother and half-brother at Corfe Castle in Dorset.  As he arrived the household retainers went to greet him but then stabbed him to death as he dismounted from his horse.  The attack had clearly been premeditated and before long Elfrida was implicated in the crime as the wicked stepmother.  It is not likely that many missed Edward and his fits of rage, but within a decade people were saying miracles were occurring alongside his bones at Wareham, and Athelred declared him a saint and martyr.

[Mike Ashley, The Mammoth Book of British Kings & Queens,  (Carroll and Graf Publishers, New York, 1998), pgs. 481-484.]

[M32]  ATHELRED (II) THE UNREADY
King of the English, 18 March 978-December 1013, 3 February 1014-23 April 1016.  Crowned:  Kingston-upon-Thames, 4 April 978.
Born:  c968.  Died:  London, 23 April 1016, aged 48.  Buried:  Old St Paul’s Cathedral, London.

Married:  (1) c985, Elgiva (c963-1002), dau. Thored, ealdorman of Northumbria: 13 children; (2) 5 April 1002, Emma (c985-1052), dau. Richard, duke of Normandy: 3 children.
Athelred is remembered colloquially and half-jokingly today as the Unready, although the nickname was really a clever pun on his name, athel “noble” and raed “counsel”, meaning “noble counsel”.  Throughout his reign Athelred was ill-advised and if he made his own decision, he was as likely to change his mind, hence the nickname, raed-less, or lacking counsel.  He was a better administrator that history has given credit, but he was a hopeless king and leader.
        He was the son of EDGAR and second (or third) wife Elfrida.  At the time of Edgar’s death there were many who supported Athelred as the next king, but the witan elected his elder half-brother EDWARD.  When Edward was murdered three years later, Athelred’s supporters, who included his mother and the Mercian ealdorman Alfhere, ensured that Athelred came to the throne.  He was still probably under ten, and Elfrida and Alfhere dominated the government of England.  Alfhere had been the main opponent to Edward and led the anti-monastic movement which flared up following the death of Edgar.  Alfhere believed that the monasteries were becoming too rich and powerful too quickly and that they could control the shires.  Alfhere was implicated in the murder of Edward.  Interestingly it was he who translated Edward’s body from its hasty burial at Wareham to Shaftesbury, where it was buried amongst great ceremony and talk of miracles.  Alfhere remained the most powerful ealdorman until his death in 983.  He succeeded in shaping Athelred’s policy toward reducing the power of the monasteries, although Athelred later over-turned this.  Alfhere also had to face the impact of the first Danish raids for thirty years, which marked the beginning of the end for the Saxon kingdom.  When he died, Alfhere was not much loved, being regarded as something of a bully.
        After Alfhere’s death Athelred endeavored (sic) to exert his own authority and even his mother’s considerable power waned, though she lived till 1002.  There was a period in the late 980s when Athelred sought to reduce the power of the church, but he subsequently reverted to his father’s interests and promoted the construction of new monasteries under the new order.  He also endeavored (sic) to update the laws of the country and reorganize local government.  This culminated in the Wantage Code of 997 which, compared to past law codes, showed an unprecedented willingness to accept local customs, especially those amongst the Danes of eastern England.  Many of the odd and curious anomalies that we have in our customs and codes of conduct in this country were enshrined under this Code.  Had Athelred’s reign been measured by his willingness and ability to reform and organize, he would have been remembered kindly, but his mettle was tested when the Danish raids returned and England was pushed to the limit.
        The raids began in a comparatively small way as early as 980 and continued through to 982.  Most of the raids were in the south west, but Southampton was severely damaged and London was attacked and burned in 982.  Raids ceased for the next few years and perhaps Athelred was lulled into a false sense of security, for in 987 they began again, once more in the south-west and then, in 991, a major battle at Maldon in Essex.  The Danish leader Olaf Tryggvason outwitted the East Saxon ealdorman Beortnoth, and the Saxons were killed to a man.  The first payment of danegeld, or what amounted to protection money, arose following this battle, a policy instigated at the suggestion of Sigeric, the archbishop of Canterbury, who was one of Athelred’s poor advisers.  Olaf used this ploy as he moved around the south and east, plundering and destroying and then extracting payment.  In 994, after the Danes had invaded London, Athelred paid 16,000 pounds in danegeld, but this time on the basis that Olaf would accept Christianity and never again raid Britain.  Olaf kept his promise.  He used the money to strengthen his fleet and finance his bid for the kingship of Norway.  But his command was superseded by others who had made no such agreement, and so the raids continued.  Each year the danegeld increased until the riches of England were savagely reduced.  In addition the monasteries were plundered and destroyed and with armies being kept mobilized (sic) for most of the year men were unable to harvest.  The country grew poorer, the men weaker, and spirits lower.  The men had no equivalent of ALFRED or EDWARD (THE ELDER) or ATHELSTAN to look to for leadership.  Athelred had never been tested as a battle commander and he had no idea what to do.  He also had to face desertion from amongst his own ealdormen, whose actions in fleeing the command of battle further weakened their men’s morale.  Athelred seemed powerless to punish them.  Instead he shifted from one mad scheme to another, none of which worked and all of which reduced the country’s morale further.  At one point in 1009, he demanded that a whole new fleet be constructed, but he was unable to find sufficient able commanders and had no battle plans to meet the Danes in the waters they controlled.  The fleet spent more time anchored off-shore than in battle, and once it moved into battle it was destroyed.  Athelred did nothing to save it but left it to its fate.  The venture was a disaster and drained the country’s resources further.  In 1002 Athelred married Emma, daughter of Richard, duke of Normandy.  The marriage was almost certainly to create an alliance whereby Richard stopped the Danes using Normandy as a base for raiding southern England.  Richard no doubt played his part, but the plan was another of Athelred’s ineffective tactics.
        Probably his worst decision was the St Brice’s Day massacre on 13 November 1002.  He ordered the killing of every Dane who lived in England except the Anglo-Danes of Danelaw.  It is unlikely that the edict was carried out to the letter, but there was fearful slaughter across southern England which left a bitter stain on Athelred’s character.  Even if the resident Danes had supported him previously, they now turned against him.  The massacre brought back to English shores the Danish commander SWEIN who had accompanied Olaf on earlier missions.  Legend has it that Swein’s sister and her husband had been killed in the massacre and Swein returned to exact revenge.  Sweins campaign lasted from 1003 to 1007 when Athelred agreed a peace treaty with him and paid over an immense danegeld of 30,000 pounds.  Swein returned to Denmark, but new commanders took his place and the raids and slaughter continued.  The next major enemy was Thorkell the Tall, who arrived with a major army in August 1009 and left a wave of destruction across southern England.  The low point of his campaign was the murder of Alphege, the archbishop of Canterbury in 1012.  Thorkell had not condoned the murder and he subsequently offered his services to help protect England.  Athelred had to raise a new tax, the heregeld, to pay for Thorkell’s army, but this band of mercenaries was more effective than the English army because it had a strong, sound leader.  Nevertheless, the whole of England had now become a battlefield, and the English were prepared to submit.  Swein read the signs correctly when he returned to England.  He landed in the Humber in August 1013, and the Northumbrians immediately submitted, followed soon by the Danes of Danelaw.  Athelred waited with Thorkell’s fleet in the Thames off London, so Swein marched on Bath, where the Mercians and West Saxons capitulated.  By December 1013 London collapsed and Athelred fled to Normandy.
        Swein died only three months later and Athelred was recalled, when Swein’s son, CANUTE, returned to establish himself in Denmark.  Athelred’s return was conditional on that he governed “more justly than he had done in the past.”  Matters did not improve, however.  Early in the fighting against Canute, in 1014 Athelred’s eldest son and heir, Athelstan, was killed in battle.  Early in 1015 Athelred executed the two leading thanes of the Danelaw whom he regarded as traitors, which did not endear him to Mercia or the north.  His son, EDMUND, gained the support of the Danelaw, and when Canute returned later in 1015, England was divided and the armies refused to move against the Danes unless the king himself commanded them.  By now, though, Athelred was dying.  Although he was only forty-eight, he had lived longer than many of his predecessors and was worn out by the fighting.  He died on 23 April 1016, leaving Edmund to continue to battle for survival.

Notes for KING EDMUND II:

[M34]  EDMUND (II) IRONSIDE
King of the English, 23 April-30 November 1016.  Crowned:  Old St Paul’s Cathedral, April 1016.
Born:  c989.  Died (murdered?):  London, 30 November 1016, aged 27.  Buried:  Glastonbury Abbey.
Married:  August(?) 1015, Edith, widow of Sigeferth, thane of East Anglia: 2 children.
Edmund was the second son of ATHELRED (II) and became the heir to the throne after the eldest son, Athelstan, fell in battle some time in 1014.  Edmund had already done his share of fighting, and had proved himself valiant, but once the heir he became even more determined.  Angered at the weakness of his father, who had already been expelled from England by SWEIN in 1013, only to return a few months later promising to rule strongly and wisely, Edmund carved out his own plan to recover England.  There was some respite during 1014 when CANUTE left England to gain the throne of Denmark, though Athelred used that time to exact retribution from those he believed had betrayed him.  One of these was Sigeferth, a thane of East Anglia, who had been amongst the first to submit to Swein when he landed at Gainsborough in August 1013.  sigeferth was executed and his widow, Edith, imprisoned at Malmesbury.  Edmund rescued Edith and married her.  This action gained the support of the Danelaw of Mercia and the north, but divided Britain, with Athelred retaining support in the south.  When Canute returned to England in September 1015 only Edmund’s army was prepared.  Athelred’s men would not fight unless led by the king but he was seldom available (he was increasingly ill) and his own ealdormen were always on the verge of desertion.  Athelred died in April 1016 and was promptly declared king.  There was no time for celebrations.  Edmund and Canute’s armies clashed at five major battles during the year.  The outcome was rarely decisive, both sides claiming victory.  Edmund succeeded in holding London against Canute’s siege and he probably would have defeated the Danes at Sherstone had not one of his ealdormen (the ever-traitorous Eadric of Shropshire) tricked the Saxons into believing Edmund was dead.  Canute defeated Edmund at Ashingdon, in Essex, on 18 October, but this time both sides were battle-weary.  One further engagement was fought near Deerhurst in Gloucester, at which point both parties agreed to negotiate.  At the Treaty of Olney, signed at the end of October, Canute was granted Mercia and Northumbria, and Edmund remained in Wessex.  Edmund returned to London.  He had been seriously wounded at Ashingdon, and his continued fighting had not improved his health.  Nevertheless his death, just one month later, still shocked the Saxon nation.  There was talk of murder and the weight of evidence supports this.  Later rumours of a particularly nasty disemboweling (sic) whilst on the privy have never been disproved.  With his death Canute soon convinced the English to accept him as king.  Edmund’s sons were despatched from England, and other young Saxon princes were transferred to places of safety.  Only one of them, Edmund’s son Edward (the father of EDGAR ATHELING), would return.
