INDEX

[1807] Cynric is probably son of Cerdic's son Creoda instead of being Cerdic's son. "Cynric defeated the Britons at (Old) Salisbury in 552 and again in conjunction with his son Ceawlin at Beranburh, probably Barbury hill near Swindon, in 556."{- Encycl.Brit.,`56,23:520} {Cf."The Age of Arthur," John Morris, 1973, pp.225-6.} He also had a son, Cutha (killed in 584), whose son Ceolric deposed Cealwin in 591 and reigned until 597 (succeeded by a second son of Cutha, Ceolwulf, who reigned 597-611). Cynric's sister had two known sons: Stuf and Wihtgar (King of the Isle of Wight, d. 544; ancestor of Osburh, mother of Alfred the Great). Note: Cynric's parents are not proven!
