Note for: Ceawlin, ABT 547 - 593
Index
Individual Note:
Ceawlin was King of the West Saxons from 560 to 591. He drove the Britons from most of southern England. There are 8 entries in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle from556 to 593;
556 With his father, Cynric he defeats the britons at Barbury Castle
560 Ceawlin succeeds to the kingdom of the West Saxons
568 Ceawlin and his brother, Cutha fought against AEthelbert of Kent and defeated him. (This demonstrates that Ceawlin was superior in arms)
577 Ceawlin and his son Cuthwine fought against the British and captured Gloucester, Bath and
Cirencester. (The battle of Deorham). The Anglo-Saxons now could access the Severn Valley and the Britons of Wales were cut off from their Cornish kinsmen.
584 Ceawlin and Cutha fought another battle. Cutha (Cuthwine, Caewlin's son) is killed possibly.
592 Battle with much slaughter fought near Devises and Ceawlin driven out. He died the following year.
A king named Coel who was Ceawlin's nephew, seized part of Ceawlin's land.
Bede included Ceawlin in his list of seven successive rulers who were overlords (bretwaldas) of all land south of the Humber.

Individual Note:
Cynric was either Cerdic's son or grandson according to which source you follow. In 552 he captured Seaoburgh (Old Sarum) giving the West Saxons mastery of Salisbury plain. In 556 Cynric and his son, Caewlin, defeated the Britons at Barbury Castle (then called Beranbyrg) near Swindon. Caewlin joined his father bringing forces from his territory in the Lower Thames valley. It was at Barbury that the foundation was laid for the establishment of Wessex.

Note for: Cerdic, ABT 467 - 534
Index
Individual Note:
Regarded as ancester of all subsequent Kings of Wessex.
There is some mystery about the events at this time. The Anglo Saxon Chronicle says that in 595 ' Here two chieftains; Cerdic and Cynric his son came to Britain with 5 ships at the place called Cerdic's Shore and the same day fought against the Welsh'. Cerdic's Shore is thought to be on Southampton Water. But the Chronicles were not written until four hundred years later and some scholars believe it is partly legend. According to the Chronicle, Cerdic and Cynric came again in 508 but it was not until 519 that they are reputed to have fought a decisive battle which made Cerdic the King of the West Saxons and ruled Wessex until his death in 534. Cerdic belonged to a Saxon tribe called the Gewissas. Other sources tell that Cerdic and Cynric gradually conquered the country from Sussex to the River Avon in Hampshire; they passed the Thames and subdued the country as far as Bedford. It is thought by some that Cerdic had some Celtic blood and that his mother was a British celt who left for the Continent . Some postulate that he may be the son of Riothamus, a King of Brittany circa 470. Other theories concern Cynric; it is thought that Cynric may have been Cerdic's grandson rather than son. He may well have been the son of Creoda (Crioda) as this would seem more chronologically probable. This is how it is shown on the tree.
