Alfred King of England
849 - 900 (51 years)1. Alfred King of England was born in 849 in Wantage, Berkshire; died on 26 Oct 900; was buried in Hyde Abbey, Winchester. Notes:
[dunbar_tree.FTW]
Alfred was one of the greatest military leaders in history; crowned at
Winchester Cathedral in 871; founded the British Navy; a scholar, etc. The
Mercian kingdom ended during his reign "and in 886 Alfred's authority was
accepted by all Englishmen who were not under the power of the Danes. From
this time onward the history of Wessex is the history of England."
{-Encyclopaedia Britannica, '56, 23:520; cf.8:483. Primary source is "Life
of King Alfred," Bishop Asser, trans. L. C. Jane (London: Chatto & Windus
Ltd., 1924).}
----- Compton's Encyclopedia (America Online, 1995) records:
ALFRED THE GREAT (848?-899). The course of English history would have been
very different had it not been for King Alfred. He won renown both as a
statesman and as a warrior and is justly called "the Great."
The England of Alfred's time was a country of four small Saxon kingdoms.
The strongest was Wessex, in the south. Born in about 848, Alfred was the
youngest son of Ethelwulf, king of Wessex. Each of Alfred's three older
brothers, in turn, ruled the kingdom. Alfred was by temperament a scholar,
and his health was never robust.
Nevertheless in his early youth he fought with his brother Ethelred
against Danish invaders. Alfred was 23 when Ethelred died, but he had already
won the confidence of the army and was at once acclaimed king in 871. By this
time the Danes, or Vikings, had penetrated to all parts of the island. Three
of the Saxon kingdoms--Northumbria, Mercia, and East Anglia--had one after
another fallen to the Danish invaders.
Under Alfred's leadership, the Saxons again found courage. The worst
crisis came in the winter of 877, when the Danish king, Guthrum, invaded
Wessex with his army. In 878 Alfred was defeated at Chippenham, where he was
celebrating Christmas, and was forced to go into hiding.
A few months later he forced Guthrum to surrender at Chippenham. The Danes
agreed to make the Thames River and the old Roman road called Watling Street
the boundary between Alfred's kingdom and the Danish lands to the north. The
treaty, however, did not assure permanent peace. The Danes assaulted London
and the coast towns repeatedly. In about 896 they finally admitted defeat and
ceased their struggle for a foothold in southern England.
Alfred was much more than the defender of his country. He took a keen
interest in law and order and was concerned with the improvement of the
cultural standards of his people. He encouraged industries of all kinds and
rebuilt London, which had been partly destroyed by the Danes. He collected
and revised the old laws of the kingdom. He invited learned men from other
countries to instruct the people because even the clergy of Wessex no longer
knew Latin, the international language of the church. He established a school
similar to the Palace School of Charlemagne.
The "books most necessary for all men to know" were translated from Latin
into English so that the people might read them. Alfred himself took a part
in preparing the translations. The `Anglo-Saxon Chronicle' was probably begun
under his direction.
Alfred died at the age of about 51 in 899. He was in no sense a true king
of England, for he ruled less than half of the island. After his death,
however, his capable son, Edward the Elder, and his grandsons extended their
rule over all of England.

From an Internet article at Ancestry.com:
"A British and U.S. archaeological team believes it has found the grave of
King Alfred, the great Saxon king, best remembered for fighting off the Danes
in the ninth century. As then befitted a king of great piety, Alfred was
buried in 899 at the New Minster church in Winchester, 65 miles southwest
of London. His remains are thought to have been moved 200 years later to
Winchester's Hyde Abbey, one of the great medieval monasteries. But the
abbey was destroyed in 1538, and the site believed to be Alfred's tomb now
lies next to a parking lot."

[dunbar_tree.FTW]
"The Scots Peerage," ed. by Sir James Balfour Paul, 4:135: "The first Lord
or Prince of Galloway on record is Fergus, styled `of Galloway', who
appears as a witness to a charter by King David I, granting land to the
Church of Glasgow on 7 July 1136 when that church was dedicated.... Little
is known of his personal history, but like King David I...he gave liberally
to the church, and was the founder of several abbeys in his own district.
...Towards the close of his life, and after King David's death, Fergus
appears to have been drawn by the claims of relationship to take part in
the insurrection of Donald MacBeth, or at least to afford him shelter in his
territories. There Donald was pursued by King Malcolm IV, who succeeded in
1160 in reducing the rebellious district to submission, and Fergus, perhaps
because of advancing age, took the cowl, and became a monk in the then new
Abbey of Holyrood, where he died in 1161. He is said to have married
Elizabeth, the youngest natural daughter of Henry I of England, but the
authorities quoted by Chalmers, who makes the statement, do not bear out
his assertion. However, Hovendon (who knew the Galloway chiefs personally)
and Benedict Abbas both refer to Uchtred, eldest son of Fergus, as cousin
of Henry II. This epithet is NOT applied to Gilbert, and he may be a son
by a second wife."Family/Spouse: Elizabeth. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

son of Maldred, Lord of Carlisle and Allerdale, who was slain in battle in 1045 and whose wife is Edith of England - Maldred is son of Crinan the Thane and Bethoc. Created Earl by William the Conqueror, he was soon deprived of the earldom and fled to
Scotland where King Malcolm Canmore gave him Dunbar and adjoining lands. Burke's "Dormant and Extinct Peerages" (London, 1883) reports "The monks of Durham celebrated 15 December, 1069, the death of this Cospatricius, Earl and Monk; and, in 1821, a
stone coffin inscribed on its lid, `+ Cospatricius Comes,' was found in the monks' burial ground at Durham."
"The Scots Peerage," James Balfour Paul (Edinburg: David Douglas, 1906), pp. 241-3, also gives Maldred (or Malcolm, ID 3257) as his father. Cospatric I visited Rome in 1061; his wife was a sister of Edmund per "Ancestral Roots..." (Balt., 1992), 34-22.

Robert Beaumont was a young man at the Battle of Hastings. As a vassal of William he was
present at the Council of War at Lillebonne and provided ships for the crossing. He commanded
a troop on the right wing and according to William of Poitiers attacked with effectiveness and
bravery in what was his first battle. He was made Earl of Leicester after the battle. Robert
was first Earl of Leicester, Lord of Beaumont, Pont-Audemar, et Brionne (France), Comte de
Meulan (Normandy) - a typical nobleman in the Norman army of occupation, holding lands and
titles on both sides of the Channel. His wife, Isabel, married secondly William de Warenne,
2nd Earl of Surrey/Warren (q.v.). Robert fought at Hastings and had added large estates in
Warwickshire to the Norman fiefs gained when his father entered the Abbey of St. Peter at
Preaux. Under Henry I Robert became "the first among the counsellors of the king." A
"strenuous and sagacious man," he served well in the Norman wars of William II and Henry I
(who owed his crown to Robert). Henry of Huntingdon states that Robert is "the wisest man
between this and Jerusalem." At Robert's death his lands were apparently divided between his
twin sons, Robert and Waleran, while a third son, Hugh, became Earl of Bedford in 1138.
(-Encyclopedia Britannica, 1956, 3:274) Robert's brother, Henry de Newburgh, b. ca. 1046, d.
