Mother: EADBURGA FADBURN of Mercia |
Ethelfleda From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Ethelfleda (alternative spelling, "Aethelfled") was the eldest
child of King Alfred the Great and his wife, Ealhswith. She was
born around AD 869. She married the ealdorman or earl of Mercia
in about 886, and had one daughter, Elfwynn. On her husband's
death in 911, she was elevated to the status of "Lady of the
Mercians". She died in 918, and is buried at Gloucester. She was
succeeded as ruler of Mercia by her brother, King Edward the
Elder.
This gives some insight into the emergence of England from
Wessex. The Danes overran most of the English Kingdoms such as
Northumbria, Mercia, East Anglia etc. Alfred and his descendents
reconquered the lands from the Danes but instead of making this
seem a conquest Alfred made Eolderman Aethelred. Earl of Mercia
and married him to his daughter, allowing some idea of regained
autonomy. When the kingdoms were absorbed they were not absorbed
into Wessex or greater Wessex but into England.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
---------------
The dominion of Mercia descended to her (Ethelfleda's) daughter
and heiress, Elfwina (A.D. 920). This Chroniclers notice the
right of Elfwina so precisely, as to leave no doubt concerning
her claim; and the fact is of considerable value, in shewing,
that, contrary to the practice of other Teutonic nations, the
sovereign authority amongst the Anglo-Saxons might descend to a
female; or, according to the Anglo-Saxon expression, which the
French have adopted, "fall to the spindle side".
In this instance, however, the weaker heir was compelled to
yield to a more powerful opponent, and one from whom no enmity
could have been feared. Elfwina was was conducted as a captive
into Mercia by her uncle Edward, who was engaged in successful
warfare against the Danes; and we do not hear anything more
concerning her in history.
