Source for Reign ; 'Kings, Queens, Bones and Bastards' by David Hilliam ISBN 0-7509-234-7 (920.041HIL @ DY)Aethelwulf, King of Wessex & the English , Ethelwulf also Known as 'Noble Wolf' was probably born at the Imperial Frankish Court in Aachen, Aethelwulf was the eldest son of King Egbert of Wessex and his wife, Redburga. He was the commander of the Wessex army which conquered Kent in AD 825 and, upon the submission of Essex, Sussex and Surrey, he became sub-King of all his father's South-Eastern lordships. Fourteen years later, he succeeded Egbert as King of All the English and his sub-kingdom was handed over to his own son, Aethelstan. Crowned at Kingston upon Thames, Ethelwulf had been sub-king of Kent and for a while was the Bishop of Winchester.
During Aethelwulf's reign, Viking incursions into Wessex stepped up a notch. Like his father, Aethelwulf was unsuccessful in battle at Carhampton, against the crews of thirty-five Viking Ships in AD 843. According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, eight years later, the West Saxons "inflicted the greatest slaughter on a heathen army". They recovered their dominance in the field, first at the Battle of Aclea (thought to be Water Oakley in Berkshire/Surrey) under Aethelwulf's second son, Aethelbald; and, subsequently, in a sea-battle off Sandwich, under his eldest son, Aethelstan, who died later that same year. It was probably this Viking threat which led to a newfound accord between the old enemies of Wessex and Mercia. In 853, King Burgred of Mercia asked for Aethelwulf's assistance in a campaign against the Welsh, and their alliance was sealed by his marriage to the latter's daughter, Princess Aethelswith. The long contested lands of Berkshire passed permanently into Wessex hands at this time and were probably part of the marriage settlement.
By 855, Aethelwulf was in his fifties and feeling his age. He decided to go on a pilgrimage to Rome, possibly with the intention of retiring there like other monarchs had done before him. He left Wessex in the safe hands of his eldest surviving son, Aethelbald, and the south-east in those of his third son, Aethelbert. The old King did return home, however, stopping at the court of King Charles the Bald of the Franks on the way. The two must have talked extensively of their common troubles caused by the marauding Vikings: a bond which led agree upon a formal alliance by which Aethelwulf's married Charles's fourteen-year-old daughter, Judith. The King of Wessex even accepted the condition that his new wife be actually crowned as queen, despite this being contrary to West Saxon tradition. When Ethelwulf died, Judith married secondly to her husband's son Ethelbald, when she was still only fifteen. Her second marriage lasting only two and half years until Ethelbald's death.
Aethelbald was not overjoyed to have his father arrive back in England to reclaim his crown. Especially since he now had a young wife who might bare him more rivals to the throne. The prince had ardent supporters, particularly in Western Wessex, where Ealdorman Enwulf of Somerset and Bishop Aelfstan of Sherborne encouraged him to hold on to his position. Rejected by Wessex, Aethelwulf retired to Aethelbert's provinces in the South-East. He died in AD 858 and was buried at Steyning in Sussex (but was later removed to Winchester). By his first wife, Osburga, the daughter of a Kentish nobleman named Oslac, he had at least six children. Apart from those already mentioned, he was also survived by his younger sons, Aethelred and Alfred.
Most of the Berkshire stories about King Alfred date from this time before he took the throne. All three of Alfred�s brothers ruled before him, and though the youngest of the family, there had always been a belief that he would one day wear the Crown. He was not inactive during this period of waiting though. Alfred was a staunch supporter of his brothers, especially the last, King Ethelred I, who faced the task of holding his country together against the marauding Danes. The Danes had been harassing the English Coast for thirty years before Ethelred came to the throne; but it was in his coronation year of 865 that they embarked on a major invasion and overran the Kingdom of East Anglia. By 870 they had arrived in Wessex determined to take as much from the Kingdom as they could. They sailed up the Thames and disembarked at Maidenhead. Marching across Berkshire they captured the Royal Villa at Reading. Here they decided to build their base and so raised great earthen ramparts between the Thames and the Kennet to protect themselves within. They were said to have also had a look-out camp at Sulhamstead. From their new stronghold two Danish Earls rode out towards Aldermaston with a raiding party. At Englefield they were halted by Aethelwulf, the Ealdorman of Berkshire, and his men, and it was here that the first clash in the Kingdom between the old enemies took place. The invaders were thoroughly defeated: one of the Earls was amongst the dead, and those left alive were sent packing back to Reading. Ethelred and Alfred joined Aethelwulf four days later, and together they drove the Danish from their outposts. From places like Sulhamstead, the Danes were pushed back to Reading, and the English marched on the town, bent on regaining the Royal lands. The ensuing battle was fierce, especially around the gate to the Danish stronghold, but the Saxons could not penetrate within. Aethelwulf was killed in the fighting and his army repulsed. They were pursued into the marshes at Whistley; but the Danes lost their way and the Saxons were able to flee across the twin ford of the River Loddon (Twyford). The Danish victory was short-lived however.
