of Holgate, Acton Burnell, Condover, Eudon Burnell (in Chetton), and
Norton (in Condover), Shropshire, East and West Ham (in East Ham) and

Kidderminster Burnell, Worcestershire, etc., king's yeoman, son and
heir of Hugh Burnell, Knt., of Wellington and Eudon Burnell,
Shropshire, by his wife, Sibyl. He was born 1 August 1264. She had
the manors of Cound, Frodesley, and Kenley, Shropshire as her
maritagium. They had one son, Edward, Knt. [Lord Burnell], and one
daughter, Maud (wife of John Lovel, 2nd Lord Lovel, and John de
Haudlo, Knt.) He was heir in 1292 to his uncle, Robert Burnell,
Bishop of Bath and Wells, Chancellor of England. SIR PHILIP BURNELL
died 26 June 1294, and was buried in the White Friars church at
Oxford, Oxfordshire. His widow, Maud, married (2nd) by license dated
19 Sept. 1295 (as his 2nd wife) ROBERT DE BRUS, Knt. (died shortly
before 4 April 1304), Earl of Carrick (in Scotland), lord of Annandale
(in Scotland), Lord Brus (in England), of Hatfield Broad Oak and
Writtle, Essex, Governor of Carlisle Castle, son and heir of Robert de
Brus, Knt., lord of Annandale (nicknamed the Competitor), by his 1st
wife, Isabel, daughter of Gilbert de Clare, Knt., Earl of Gloucester
and Hertford, Magna Carta baron. He was born in July 1243. They had
no issue. In Feb. 1296 Robert de Brus, knight, Earl of Carrick, and
Robert de Brus, his son, and three others owed £120 to John de
Abingdon, citizen of London. He accompanied Edward I into Scotland,
and fought at the Battle of Dunbar 28 April 1296. He again swore
fealty to King Edward I at Berwick 28 April 1296. However, on his
claims to the throne being thwarted by Edward, he again retired to
England, where he resided chiefly at Broomshawbury, Essex. In August
1296 Robert de Brus, knight, Earl of Carrick, his son, Robert, and two
others owed a debt of £60 to Nicholas Daleroun, Simon Daleroun, and
Henry Daleroun, citizens and merchants of Winchester. In Oct. 1296 he
and his wife, Maud, were involved in a plea of dower regarding her
English lands. Robert was summoned to attend the King of England at
Salisbury 26 Jan. 1296/7. This marriage ended in divorce sometime
before Easter term 1299, when Maud sued regarding her right of dower
in a messuage in Gunton, Norfolk as "Maud who was the wife of Philip
Burnell," without reference to Robert de Brus as her spouse. In 1302,
as "Maud widow of Philip Burnel," she petitioned the king and council
in England regarding socages and burgages held in various counties by
her late husband, Philip Burnell. She and her son, Edward Burnell,
were sued in Michaelmas term, 6 Edward II (1312-3) by Henry de
Erdington regarding the manor of Wellington, Shropshire. She
presented to the church of Great Cheverell, Wiltshire in 1314 and in
1315. Maud married (3rd) before 19 June 1316 SIMON DE CRIKETOT. In
1296 Simon de Criketot, while with the king's army in Scotland, was
attached to answer Robert de Escores on a plea of trespass, regarding
which plea he had licence to make an agreement, saving to the marshal
his right; they submitted themselves to the arbitration of William
Talemasch and Thomas de Hauville. In Feb. 1320 he had letters
nominating John le Longe his attorney in Ireland for one year. SIMON
DE CRIKETOT was living 7 March 1320. His wife, Maud, was living 19
June 1316, but died shortly before 17 Nov. 1326 (death date of her
nephew, Edmund, Earl of Arundel), as indicated by a petition to the
king and council dated c.1330 submitted by her daughter and son-in-
law, Maud and John de Haudlo).

; I am going to have to issue a mea culpa. I was misremembering the connection - there was a Basset/Sandford marriage, but not Laurence and Hawise (which, if nothing else, helps the chronology).


From a chart, p. xxxix in _Basset Charters, c. 1120 to 1250_, William T. Reedy ed., Publications of the Pipe Roll Society, n.s. vol. 50, London 1995

Alan Basset of Wycombe had:
1. Thomas, d. 1230
2. Gilbert, d. 1241, m. Isabel de Ferrers and had:
a. Gilbert, d. 1241.
3. Alice, m. John de Sandford
4. Fulk, Bishop of London, d. 1259
5. David
6. Warin, d. 1233
7. Philip, d 1271, m. H. de Gray, m.2 Ela, Countess of Warwick
a. Aline, m. Hugh Despenser, m.2 Roger Bigod

A Basset pedigree in History and Antiquities of Leicester, primarily derived from a manuscript of William Dugdale, gives more detail on the Basset/Sandford marriage:

"Alice, wife of Sir John Sandford, who was patron of the priory of Blackmere, from whence is the earl of Oxford"

(this last perhaps a reference to the marriage of Robert de Vere, 5th Earl of Oxford, to Alice de Sanford, daughter of Gilbert de Sanford, d. 1249.)


Of particular interest is the following, from The Catalogue formerly known as PROCAT:

E 40/501

A. D. 1213-1234
Grant by William, the prior, and the canons of Blakemore. THe late Alan de Sanford, son of the late knt. their patron, Sir John de Sanford, had elected to be buried in their church near his forefathers, and SIr Gilbert Basset, uncle (advunculus) of the same Alan, had converted to their use 30 acres which lady Alice de Snford held of them in Alfladewike, for the "remedium" of his said deceased grandson and knt. and by this and other largesses the said Gilbert, with their said patron and lady Alice his wife, have cuased their church to have perpetual memory of the deceased. Wherefore they grant to Gilbert and his heirs the right of presenting one canon, whom they shall be bound to admit; such canon to be called the 'Basset' canon. Witnesses:- Sir Fulk Basset, provost of Beverley, Sir John de Sanford, Sir Thomas Basset, and Sir Warin, brothers, Sir Adam de Periton, Sir Robert de Wattevile, Sir Thomas de Gulafre, Sir Geoffrey de Bidefor, Gilbert de Sanford.


This is a little confusing, particularly the "of the said deceased grandson and knt" part. However, it shows that Alice had at least one son, Alan, and I would suggest that Gilbert and Sir John are also her sons.

This appears to give Gilbert Basset an earlier wife, Alice, prior to his marriage to Isabel de Ferrers. The provost of Beverley is presumably the future Bishop of London, while Thomas Basset and his brother Warin are also the so-named siblings of Alice.


We have already seen Philip serving as witness for a grant of Nicolas de Sandford, son of John to his brother Laurence, and here are a few more Basset/Sandford interactions:


E 40/199

41 Hen. III
Demise by Sir Laurence de Saunford to Sir James de Aldateles, for his life, of all land he held at Wymabank, Newhall, and Hesinglinton, for 20/. yearly, to be paid at Burncester at Sir James' cost, the first tem to being at Easter, 41 Henry III; and for this demise Sir James has paid 25/. Witnesses:- Sirs Philip Basset, William Lungspere, Henry de Baton, Henry de Mar, Hugh Dispenser, William de Insula, William de Gorham, and others (named) Endorsed: Inter Laur's de Samford et Jacob' de Audel.' Chesh


E 40/4636

London, feast of St. Gregory, 45 Henry III.
Letters patent by Hawisia de Saumford, acknowledging the receipt from Sir Philip Basset and the executors of Sir Laurence de Samford, her late husband, of a charter of feoffment of Dauntesye, made to the said Laurence by Sir Gilbert de Dauntesye, and of a charter of confirmation thereof by Sir Gilbert de Dauntesye, and of a charter of confirmation thereof by Sir Richard de Dauntesye; also of the chirograph made between the said Sir Laurence and Gilbert of land in Dauntesye, Bremelham, Wivelesford &c. and of the letter of attorney by the said Glbert to give seisin to the said Laurence of the manor of Dauntesye: [Wilts.]


E 40/2595

[A.D. 1227-1243.]
Grant by Hubert de Burgo, Earl of Kent, to Philip Basset of his messuage of Biestun with the circuit of the same manor, which remained to him above the extent of the said manor which he made to Philip in exchange for the manor of Crokestun which he had formerly given him. Witnesses:_ Sirs Gilbert and Nicholas de Sandford, Henry de Wintersell, William de Gorham, and others (named): [Middx.]


Based on this, I would tentatively add Nicolas and Laurence to the list of children of Alice Basset and John de Sandford. The only problem here is the marriage of Laurence to a Hawise, who, apparently a widow in 1297 fits more comfortably in the generation after Philip and Alice Basset, is herself called daughter of Lord Basset. She would appear to derive from a more distant branch of that family. (I don't have handy access to the appropriate volume of CP - How many Lord Bassets were there at the time?)


The next entry of interest, another with Sandford witnessing for Basset:

E 40/844

(A.D.1245-1259)
Grant by William . . . to Sir Philip Basset, of lands called 'Ayswelle,' 'Tenakeresh(e)gge,' &c., in Boytun, in Finchingefeld parish. Witnesses:-Sir Gilbert de Sanford, Master Fulk de Sanford, treasurer of St. Paul's, London, Sir Ralph de Ardern, Sir Geoffrey Neirenut, and others (named). (Essex)


Here, in Master Fulk de Sandford, I suspect we have the future Archbishop of Dublin. He would have owed his position as treasurer to his presumed uncle, Bishop Fulk Basset. (That his uncle was his patron in advancement would have, perhaps, provided the impetus to use his uncle's surname - it would have reaffirmed the connection.) I suggest we place him, too, as son of a John and Alice. As to Archbishop John, I am not so sure. Do we _know_ he was brother of Fulk? If so, he would be the second John in the family I have proposed, but given that he outlived Fulk by 23 years, I wonder of they might instead have been uncle and nephew.








Some additional Sandford documents from the database formerly known as PROCAT:


E 101/232/22

24 Edward I.
Letter and memorandum as to the goods of J. de Sandford, archbishop of Dublin, a crown debtor.



SC 8/66/3257

[c. 1318]
Petitioners: Roger [de Pembrok (Pembroke)], son of Roger de Pembrok (Pembroke).
Addressees: King's council.
Places mentioned: County Tipperary, [Ireland]; Athlone, [County Westmeath, Ireland]; Belaghnegarmyn (unidentified), County Tipperary, [Ireland]; Scotland.
Other people mentioned: Roger de Pembrok (Pembroke), formerly Sheriff of County Tipperary; [Edward I], King of England; John de Sandford, Archbishop of Dublin & Justiciar of Ireland; Walter Lenfaunt, Keeper of the castle of Athlone; [Richard de Burgh], Earl of Ulster.
Nature of request: Roger, son of Roger de Pembrok, formerly Sheriff of County Tipperary, makes two requests:
1) He asks that the Justiciar and Treasurer of Ireland be ordered to inquire into two payments, amounting to £40, made by his father at the command of John de Sandford, Archbishop of Dublin and Justiciar of Ireland, for which he never received an allowance, and that they might be allowed to him.
2) He requests a writ to the Treasurer of Ireland to levy £30 owed by various debtors in County Tipperary, for which he can show evidence, and that he might be able to pay the rest of the £115 demanded of him in terms of 6 marks annually, as the king's father granted to his father.
Endorsement: The Justiciar and Treasurer of Ireland are to be ordered that, when they have examined all the rolls and memoranda of the said Justiciar in the Exchequer, if they find that the £40 mentioned in the petition were paid for the king's benefit, as is contained in the petition, then they are to give him an allowance for them in the Exchequer. And with regard to the payment in instalments of the remainder of the debt, considering the estate of the person and the service he has done to the king, they are to do what seems to them to be done. The Treasurer is also to be written to, to have the £30 levied from the various debtors whose names the same Roger will give him, in exoneration of the same Roger.

And with regard to the Sanford/Vere connection:

SC 8/51/2549

[1278-1281]

The Earl of Hereford and Earl of Oxford state that after the death of Joan de Sanford, who held Lashbrook of the Earl of Oxford and Shelley of the Earl of Hereford, they seized these tenements into their hands, but because one John de Munteny claimed to be her heir and to hold of the king in chief, an inquest was held in three counties. In Oxfordshire and Essex it was found that she held nothing in chief, but the inquest in Suffolk, held partly with the villeins of John's kinsman Robert de Munteny, found that she did, so that the Earls were expelled from their manors. The Earl of Oxford complained and a new inquest was ordered in Suffolk, to be taken by Richard de Holebrok, but this was halted by a writ acquired by John de Munteny to associate William de Burle. The Earls dispute that Joan held any tenements in chief of the king in Suffolk or elsewhere, and ask for justice to be done to them.4

Excommunicated rebels
     "In September 1215, the papal commissioners in England – Subdeacon Pandulf, Peter des Roches, Bishop of Winchester, and Simon, Abbot of Reading – excommunicated the rebels, acting on instructions earlier received from Rome. A letter sent by the commissioners from Dover on 5 September to Archbishop Langton explicitly names nine senior rebel barons (all members of the Council of Twenty-Five), and six clerics numbered among the rebel ranks:[67]

      ; EDWARD III (age 15 at his accession). Council of regency and rule (1327-30) under Mortimer, Isabelle's paramour; Bruce's invasion of England forced the acknowledgment of Scottish independence (1328). Edward led the baronial opposition to Mortimer (hanged, 1330) and opened his personal rule (1330).

Outbreak of the Hundred Years' War. Edward did homage (1329) for his French lands and renewed the homage (1331). French support of Scottish aggression continued, and Edward, profiting by civil war in Scotland, supported Baliol; after a series of expeditions, he avenged Bannockburn at Halidon Hill (1333). French intrigues to alienate Aquitaine continued. The economic interdependence, due to the wool trade, of England and the Flemish cities made an English alliance with them likely. Philip continued his advance into the English lands south of the Loire (1337), and open hostilities broke out (1338). Edward ravaged northern and eastern France without a decisive battle. Urged on by the Flemings, Edward proclaimed himself king of France (in right of his mother, Isabelle), and enabled the Flanders towns under Jan van Arteveldt to support him without violating their oaths.

1340: The naval victory of Sluys transferred the mastery of the Channel from France to England (until 1372). Intermittent truces (1340-45) were followed by Edward's invasion of France.

1347-1355: A series of truces with France was ended by the expedition of Edward's son, the Black Prince (so called because of the color of his armor), to Bordeaux, followed by ruthless plundering raids using Bordeaux as a base, which enriched the English and alienated the populace.

1360: Edward's personal rule and domestic developments in England. Edward, a majestic, affable man, opened his reign with generous concessions to the baronage and a courteous welcome to the complaints of the middle class. He grew steadily in popularity. He was fond of war and the war was popular; the nation backed him.

Edward the Confessor, of the line of Alfred, was under Godwin's domination. Brought up at the Norman court, speaking French, he tried to Normanize the English court. Godwin's influence led to the deposition of the Norman archbishop of Canterbury and the selection of the Saxon Stigand by the witan. Godwin's son Harold succeeded him (1053) as earl of Wessex and dominated Edward as his father had. Another son of Godwin, Tostig, became earl of Northumbria. Harold (c. 1064) was driven ashore on the Channel, fell into the hands of William, duke of Normandy, a cousin of Edward the Confessor, and was forced to take an oath to help William attain the crown of England, which William declared Edward had promised him.10

; Leo van de Pas cites: Burke's Guide to the Royal Family London, 1973 , Reference: 310.7 He was King of England: [Ashley, pp. 491-494] EDWARD THE CONFESSOR King of England, 8 June 1042-4 January 1066. Crowned: Winchester, 3 April 1043. Born: c1004, Islip, Oxfordshire; Died: Westminster, 4 January 1066, aged 61. Buried: Westminster Abbey. Married: 23 January 1045 at Winchester Cathedral, Edith (c1020-75) dau. of Earl Godwin of Wessex: no children. After the welcome death of HARTHACANUTE, there was no surviving male heir of CANUTE'S line. His cousin, Swein, had believed himself heir, but his entitlement was overridden. In Scandinavia, Canute's domain was overrun by Magnus of Norway whilst England saw the return of the Saxon dynasty descended from EGBERT in the form of Edward, the only surviving son of ATHELRED (THE UNREADY) and his second wife, Emma, the daughter of Duke Richard of Normandy. Edward was half-Norman and had spent most of his youth (since the age of nine) in exile in Normandy. He thus grew up favouring Norman customs and, never having expected to become king, was also a rather idle and dissolute man. Upon his accession he realised he had a kingdom divided between Saxons, Danes and Norse with powerful earls of all factions. It is to Edward's credit that he succeeded in governing despite these differences. Critics of Edward accuse him of being a vacillating and indecisive king, like his father, but this may have been a façade for a cunning tactician, because Edward succeeded in ruling for over twenty-three years amidst much popular support. The fact that he was prepared to make strong decisions is evident from the start of his reign, when he confiscated his mother's property because she retained control over much of the Treasury. Emma was the most powerful and probably the richest woman in England, being the widow of two previous kings (Athelred and Canute), but her support for Edward had been limited. In fact she seemed to have almost disowned her marriage to Athelred and had become a strong supporter of the Danish court. Although Edward dispossessed her she was not sent into exile but remained in England. Charges were brought against her of involvement in the death of her sons by her first marriage and in supporting the Danish king Magnus. She seems to have bought her way out of this, although the more colourful records state that a trial by ordeal was arranged. Emma purportedly walked over nine red-hot ploughshares unscathed and at this show of innocence Edward restored all her lands and property and begged her forgiveness. She lived on at Winchester where she died on 6 March 1052, aged about sixty-six.
The power base in England at this time was with Godwin, earl of Wessex, and his many sons. It was Godwin's position that secured Edward his kingship, as the English Danes had previously recognized Canute's nephew Swein as successor. Godwin had married first the daughter of SWEIN (Canute's father) and after her death, Gytha, granddaughter of Swein's sister. Godwin regarded himself as a kingmaker (he had succeeded in raising HAROLD (I) to the throne and expected his son HAROLD (II) to become king in turn). To further cement this royal connection Godwin secured the marriage of Edward to Edith, the eldest child of Godwin and Gytha, in 1045. The marriage was apparently never consummated, and popular tradition has ascribed this to Edward's piety or effetism. Edward was to all intents married to the church. His single most lasting achievement was the construction of Westminster Abbey, which he financed personally and which was consecrated within a week of his death. Edward was not especially learned himself, but he loved to surround himself with knowledge and culture and encouraged scholarship throughout the country. With England benefitting from the first period of lasting peace for over seventy years, Edward's reign was the last glow of a Saxon golden age.
Edward had no reason to like Godwin, for all that he knew he needed his support. Godwin had been implicated in the murder of Edward's brother Alfred, who had been imprisoned and blinded in 1036/7 at the order of Harold I. Furthermore Godwin had twice changed sides, having come to power under Canute and supported Harthacanute before switching to Harold I, only to back Edward after Harold's death instead of the obvious successor Swein Ulfsson. Finally, the two had politically opposed ideals. Edward was primarily a Norman. He filled his court with Normans and appointed them to the most senior posts, whilst Godwin believed these posts should be given to the Saxon and Danish nobility. It was a conflict over Edward's favouritism to the Normans that led to an argument between Edward and Godwin in 1051. Edward, now feeling secure, banished Godwin and his sons, and despatched Edith to a convent. It was not a popular move as the Godwins were held in high regard by the English. It may have been partly to ameliorate this that Edward abolished the danegeld in 1051, the oppressive tax that Athelred had levied to pay the Danish pirates.
During this power vacuum, WILLIAM of Normandy visited Edward. William's father was Edward's cousin, and William knew that Edward had no formal heir and would not want the kingdom inherited by Godwin's sons. Although there is no record of any agreement at this time, it was later claimed that Edward then nominated William as his successor. However the following year Godwin and his sons invaded England. Edward was prepared to fight but the witan did not want a civil war. With bad grace, Edward pardoned Godwin and restored him and his sons to their earldoms. This made them more powerful than before. Godwin also secured his son Harold as senior amongst Edward's advisors, so much so that by 1053 Edward had more or less passed all administration over to Harold, leaving himself able to devote his energies to church matters and to hunting. Surprisingly during this period Edward supported the claim of MALCOLM (III) to the kingship of Scotland and gave his authority to an invasion of Scotland by Siward, earl of Northumbria, to depose MACBETH and place Malcolm on the throne. The initial onslaught was only partially successful but Malcolm eventually succeeded to the Scottish throne in 1058 and his friendship to the Saxons would prove valuable to Saxon exiles in future years.
In the meantime Harold Godwinson grew from strength to strength. It was he who led most of the assaults against the Welsh who had harried the border territories for many years. During these campaigns Harold demonstrated his superior soldiery and skills as a general. Harold was increasingly looking like a successor to Edward, which Edward did not want. Even though he may have promised the succession to William, the anti-Norman feeling in England made this too dangerous a course to promote. Edward was thus relieved when he learned in 1054 that his nephew, known as Edward the Exile, was alive and well in Hungary. An embassy was despatched to recall him to England. As the son of EDMUND IRONSIDE he was the natural successor. His return was delayed but Edward finally arrived in England in August 1057. Within a few weeks he was dead, probably killed by order of Harold, though there is no evidence. Edward's succession plans were thwarted, although he now raised Edward the Exile's four-year old son, EDGAR, as his heir (atheling). Edward was forced to acknowledge that should he die before Edgar came of age, Harold would be regent. As a result the final years of Edward's reign were ones of increasing uncertainty. Edward still favoured William of Normandy as his successor, whilst the English increasingly favoured Harold, at least as war-leader if Edward died before the young atheling came of age. There was another claimant, Harald Haadraada of Norway, who already ruled Orkney and the Western Isles, and believed England was his by right. In 1065, Godwin's son Tostig was deprived of his earldom in Northumbria following his inept and tyrannical rule, and was banished to Flanders. He soon threw in his lot with Harald Haadraada, so that by the end of 1065, when it was clear that Edward was dying, the English throne was under considerable threat and needed strong leadership. Thus, when Edward died in that first week of January 1066, it was Harold who became the last king of the Saxons. between 8 June 1042 and 4 January 1066.11,8

; Per Med Lands:
     "KNUD Svendsen, son of SVEND I "Tveskæg/Forkbeard" King of Denmark & his first wife [Gunhild] --- ([995]-Shaftesbury, Dorset 12 Nov 1035, bur Winchester Cathedral, Old Minster[1970]). The Encomium Emmæ Reginæ names "Cnutone filio suo [=Sueinum] maiore"[1971]. However, the identity of Knud's mother is uncertain. Adam of Bremen names "Chnut" as son of King Svend & his wife "Herici relictam, matrem Olaph"[1972]. The Fagrskinna suggests that Knud was the son of King Svend's first marriage by stating that Astrid, daughter of King Svend and Sigrid Skoglar-Tosta, had the same father as King Knud and the same mother as Olof King of Sweden[1973]. According to Ronay[1974], Knud was taken back to Poland with his mother after her divorce and fostered by Thorkell "the Tall" at the fortress of Jömsborg at the mouth of the River Oder but the author cites no primary source to support this. Knud took part in the invasion of England in 1013 led by his father. After his father's death, Æthelred II King of England counter-attacked the Danes in Lindsey, whereupon the Danish fleet under Knud withdrew to Denmark. In August 1015, Knud invaded England again. Guillaume of Jumièges records that “Danamarchæ...regique Sveno” invaded England but died “apud Lundoniam”, was buried “apud Danamarcham”, and succeeded by “filius eius...Chunutus” who launched a new invasion with “Lacman equidem Suauorum et Olavum Noricorum”[1975]. By the end of 1015, he was in control of Wessex, helped by the defection of Eadric "Streona/the Acquisitor" Ealdorman of Mercia. The Danes controlled Northumbria in early 1016, then turned their attention to London and the south-east. After the death of King Æthelred in Apr 1016, the Witan offered the throne to Knud, to whom a group of nobles and church dignitaries from southern England swore allegiance at Southampton[1976]. Knud's fleet laid siege to London, which was relieved by King Æthelred's son King Edmund "Ironside" who had been proclaimed king by an assembly in London. Knud turned his attention to Mercia, Eadric "Streona" defecting back to King Edmund's forces at Aylesford, only to return to Knud at Ashingdon in Essex where Danish forces finally defeated King Edmund in Oct 1016[1977]. At Alney, near Deerhurst, the king agreed a compromise division of the country with Knud, Edmund taking Wessex and Knud the north, but Edmund died in Nov 1016 before this could be implemented. After the death of King Edmund, Knud was accepted as CANUTE King of England, crowned maybe at Old St Paul’s Cathedral, London 6 Jan 1017. After succeeding in England, he divided the country into four districts for administrative purposes[1978]. He appointed Eadric "Streona" as Ealdorman of Mercia ("slain in London" the same year, according to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle[1979]), gave East Anglia to Thorkell the tall, confirmed Erik Haakonsson Jarl in Norway as Earl of Northumbria, and kept direct control over Wessex. He held a national assembly at Oxford in 1018 which decided the legal form of his rule, largely following that of King Edgar "the Peaceable". He succeeded his brother in 1018 as KNUD I "den Storre/the Great" King of Denmark, leaving England for Denmark to take possession in 1019. His position in Denmark did not go unchallenged, for he was defeated at the Holy River in [1025] by Olaf King of Norway and Amund King of Sweden[1980]. He expelled Olav King of Norway in 1028, declaring himself KNUD King of Norway. Malcolm II King of Scotland submitted to him in 1031[1981]. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records the death of King Canute at Shaftesbury on 12 Nov 1035 and his burial in the Old Minster, Winchester[1982]. The Libellus de Anniversariis of Ramsey Monastery records the death “Id Nov” of “Knuto rex qui dedit nobis S. Felicem”[1983].
     "m (2 or 31 Jul 1017) as her second husband, EMMA de Normandie, widow of ÆTHELRED II King of England, daughter of RICHARD I "Sans Peur" Comte de Normandie & his second wife Gunnora --- ([985]-Winchester 14 Mar 1052, bur Winchester Cathedral, Old Minster[1984]). Guillaume de Jumièges names Emma as one of the three daughters of Duke Richard and Gunnor[1985]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Emma Anglorum regina" as sister of "dux Normannie Richardus II"[1986]. Roger of Wendover records the marriage in Jul 1018 of "Cnuto" and "ducem Ricardum…Emmam sororem suam et regis Ethelredi relictam"[1987]. She was known as ÆLFGIFU in England[1988]. Her first husband sent her to her brother's court in Normandy in 1013 after the invasion of Svend King of Denmark[1989]. She was living in Normandy in 1017 when King Æthelred's successor King Canute proposed marriage to her. Guillaume of Jumièges records that, after the death of “Edelredus rex”, “Emmam reginam” married “rex...Chunutus...Christiano more”, and names their children “Hardechunutum postmodum regem Danorum et filiam...Gunnildem quæ nupsit Henrico Romanorum Imperatori”[1990]. After the death of her second husband, she continued to live at Winchester. After the election of her step-son as regent in early 1036, it was recognised that she would continue to live there to look after the interests of her son Harthacnut who had nominally succeeded his father as King of England and Denmark but was still absent in Denmark. It is likely that she encouraged her sons by her first husband, Edward and Alfred, to join her, Alfred being captured and murdered during the visit. After Harold was recognised as king of England in 1037, Queen Emma was expelled and took refuge at Bruges[1991]. She commissioned the Encomium Emmæ Reginæ from a Flemish convent at Saint-Omer, maybe St Bertin's, designed to promote her son Harthacnut's claim to the English throne. Harthacnut joined her in Bruges in early 1040, and after the death of King Harold, they returned together to England. After the accession of Edward "the Confessor", her son by her first husband, Emma appears to have supported the rival claim of Magnus King of Norway[1992]. Whatever the truth of this, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle reports that King Edward did confiscate her property in 1043[1993]. She seems to have spent the last years of her life in retirement in Winchester[1994]. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records the death of "Ælfgifu Emma, the mother of king Edward and of king Harthacnut" in 1052[1995].
     "Mistress (1): ÆLFGIFU [Alfifa] Ælfhelmsdotter of Northampton, daughter of Ealdorman ÆLFHELM of Deira & his wife Wulfrun[1996] (-after 1036). Roger of Wendover names "Algiva, Elfelmi comitis filia" as first wife of "regis Cnutonis" and mother of "duos…filios Suanum…et Haroldum"[1997]. She was known as ALFIFA in Denmark and Norway. King Knud took her as a "temporary wife"[1998], but the "marriage" was not recognised by the church. According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, Harold claimed that he was the son of King Canute by "Ælfgifu of Northampton, although it was not true", another passage commenting that "many thought this [claim] quite incredible"[1999]. She continued to behave as Queen in the north of England after King Canute married Emma. King Canute appointed her co-regent in Norway in 1030 for their son Svend. Morkinskinna records that “Álfifa” accompanied her son Svend back to Denmark after he was overthrown as king of Norway (in 1035)[2000]. Morkinskinna records that “Álfifa” tried unsuccessfully to poison Magnus King of Norway but killed “King Hordaknútr” instead (dated to 1042), and that “she vanished instantly so that she could not be punished”, stating that this took place “in the sixth year of King Magnus’s reign”[2001]. Morkinskinna records that “Álfífa” tricked “a powerful duke named Otto south in Saxony”, when visiting “Norway and arrived in Vik”, into thinking that “her daughter…not King Sveinn’s sister by the same father” was Ulfhild, sister of Magnus King of Norway[2002]. The paragraph refers to Ordulf Duke of Saxony who later married Ulfhild, their marriage being dated to Nov 1042. This is the only reference so far identified to this supposed daughter. However, it seems surprising that Ælfgifu would have been present in Norway and have been in a position to welcome foreign visitors, given that her son by King Canute had been overthrown as king of Norway by King Magnus. All passages in Morkinskinna which refer to “Álfífa” treat her with disdain as the archetypal wicked queen figure, suggesting that they should all be treated with caution. Weir gives her date of death as “1044?” without any basis for her conjecture[2003]. Roger of Wendover records that death "Algiva, Elfelmi comitis filia", first wife of "regis Cnutonis", died in 1018[2004], but this date is incompatible with the other sources quoted above."
