The conversion of the English from paganism to Christianity is
traditionally regarded as a process which began with the arrival
of St Augustine in 597 (HE i.25), which involved various other
missionaries, and which ended in the 680s with the conversion of
the Isle of Wight (HE iv.16). Of course this is Bede's
conception of the subject; but it is not only for this reason
that this section extends into the first half of the eighth
century.
The conversion to Christianity: The principal sources for the
'Roman' mission include the letters of Pope Gregory the Great
(B300), the Liber Pontificalis (B600), the Whitby Life of
Gregory (B133), and Bede's Ecclesiastical History (B21).
For the 'Celtic' mission, see Adomn n's Life of Columba (B120),
the Lives of St Cuthbert (B130), Bede's Ecclesistical History
(B21), and the Historia Brittonum (B11). See also the Life of St
Wilfrid (B140).
The Council of Whitby (664): The issues at stake included the
correct date for the keeping of Easter (cf. D45, D184a), the
correct form of tonsure, and other significant matters of
ecclesiastical discipline. The primary accounts are Stephen's
Life of St Wilfrid (B140), ch. 10, and, at greater length, Bede,
HE iii.25. The protagonists were (on the 'Irish' side) Colman
(bishop of Lindisfarne), Abbess Hild, and Cedd (bishop of
London), and (on the 'Roman' side) Agilbert (bishop of the West
Saxons), Agatho (a priest), Wilfrid (abbot of Ripon), James the
Deacon, and Romanus, plus King Oswiu (Chairman) and his son King
Alhfrith.
Whitby: For Hild (b. 614), abbess of Hartlepool (from c. 647),
founder and abbess of Whitby (from 657), and founder of Hackness
(680), see Bede, HE iv.23; she died on 17 November 680. King
Oswiu was buried at Whitby in 670; bones of King Edwin were
brought there in the 680s (Life of St Gregory, chs. 18-19). For
the story of Cadmon, see Bede, HE iv.24; and for 'Cadmon's Hymn,
see, e.g., Ker (B800), nos. 25 and 122. For the cult of Pope
Gregory, see Thacker (D37a). [D95] Anonymous Whitby Life of
Gregory, written ?704 x 713 (B133). [D96] B. Colgrave, 'The
Earliest Life of Gregory the Great, written by a Whitby Monk',
in K. Jackson, et al., Celt and Saxon (1963), pp. 119-37 .

Seventh Century', in T23, pp. 3-32. [D98] C.P. Wormald, 'St
Hilda, Saint and Scholar (614-80)', The St Hilda's College
Centenary Symposium, ed. J. Mellanby (1993), pp. 93-103 .
THE AGE OF BEDE (673-735): It is not inappropriate that the
late seventh and early eighth centuries should be regarded, par
excellence, as the 'age of Bede', since his view of the period
is necessarily ours. It should be noted at the same time that
the period from c. 675 to c. 725 was one of general political
equilibrium, in between two phases of 'Mercian' supremacy. This
provided a context for the activities of Theodore, archbishop of
Canterbury (669-90), esp. at councils of Hertford (HE iv.5) and
Hatfield (HE iv.17), and at the battle of the river Trent (HE
iv.21); and it is reflected also in the law-codes of Wihtred,
king of Kent (690-725), and of Ine, king of Wessex (688-726), in
EHD nos. 31-2, in which connection cf. ASC s.a. 694.
The varieties of monasticism: It is important to appreciate the
differences between the Northumbrian religious houses themselves
(e.g. in terms of the circumstances of their foundation, persons
associated with them, works or manuscripts produced at them, and
the physical appearance of them), lest one should otherwise
imagine that Bede's particular view of the Church was the only
one available. For double houses, see D135.
History and hagiography: One avenue of approach towards such an
understanding of Northumbrian monasticism is through
consideration of the persons principally associated with each
house, and through study of the interests displayed in any
literary works known to have been produced there.
For the Celtic background to the Northumbrian hagiography of the
late seventh and early eighth centuries, see Adomn n's Life of
St Columba, written 679 x 704 (B120). See also, in general,
Lapidge (A50), Gransden (A91),
Double Houses: There were numerous 'double houses' (monks nad
nuns, ruled by an abbess) throughout the country, e.g.
Minster-in-Thanet, Barking, Ely, Repton, Wenlock, Whitby, and
Wimbourne; for the goings-on at Coldingham (Northumbria), see
bede, HE iv.25. For women in the church, see Hollis (Q21). See
also entry on nunneries in A100. [D135] B. Mitchell,

The reign of Athelbald, king of the Mercians (716-57)
The reign of Offa, king of the Mercians (757-96)
The Reign of Coenwulf, king of the Mercians (796-821)
The Mercian supremacy
The equilibrium south of the Humber was broken by the death of
Wihtred, king of Kent, in 725, and by the departure of Ine, king
of Wessex, to Rome in 726. The way was open for Athelbald, king
of Mercia since 716, to come to the fore; and it was during this
period that Bede wrote the Historia ecclesiastica.
Our attention is focused on the great Mercian overlords -
Athelbald (716-57), Offa (757-96) and Coenwulf (798-821) -
though it is as well to bear in mind that things looks different
if seen from a Welsh, Middle Anglian, West Saxon, Kentish, East
Anglian, Northumbrian, or continental perspective.
KENT. King Wihtred (690-725) presided over the whole of the
formerly bipartite kingdom of Kent. After the death of Wihtred
in 725, the kingdom was divided into its two component parts:
east Kent (governed from Canterbury), and west Kent (governed
from Rochester). The relationship between the two kingdoms, and
the consequences of the imposition of Mercian overlordship, are
well illustrated by charters: see Kelly (B291), pp. 195-203, and
Keynes, Atlas of Attestations (B331), Table V. [E120] King
Wihtred's law-code, see EHD no. 31.
The kingdom of the Mericans in the ninth century: It is
apparent that the Merican polity was coming apart at the seams
in the 820s. For further discussion, see Wormald (F5), p. 128;
see also Keynes (F6), pp. 119-20, and S 1435, in Kelly (B293),
no. 15. For St Kenelm of Winchcombe, see Q350. Understanding of
the fortunes of the Mercian kings in the central decades of the
ninth century depends largely on the evidence of their charters
and coins. The question arises whether there was any organising
principle behind the succesion of Mercian kings: Coenwulf
(796-821); Ceolwulf I (821-3); Beornwulf (823-5); Ludeca
(825-7); Wiglaf (827-9 and 830-40); Berhtwulf (840-52); Burgred
(852-74); and Ceolwulf II (874-9). It is possible that we should
resolve the kings (and other players) into three competing
dynasties (e.g. Wormald (F5), pp. 128 and 138; Thacker (Q154),
pp. 9 and 12-13; see also Keynes (F90), pp. 11 n. 40 and 39 n.
168), whose names began respectively with C, B, and W. Or it may
be that the Mercian polity was rather different from the West
Saxon polity (cf. Keynes (F90), p. 5 nn. 16-17), and that it
reverted during this period to its 'natural' state.
Victims of the vikings: For lurid discussion of the rite of the
blood-eagle, inflicted upon AElle, king of the Northumbrians, in
867, and upon Edmund, king of the East Angles, in 869, see:
[F49] Smyth (F34), pp. 189-94, and index, s.v. 'Ritual Slaying'
(see also Snake Pits); R. Frank, 'Viking Atrocity and Skaldic
verse: the Rite of the "Blood Eagle"', EHR 99 (1984), pp.
332-43; B. Einarsson, 'De Normannorum Atrocitate, or on the
Execution of Royalty by the Aquiline method', Saga-book of the
Viking Society 22.1 (1986), pp. 79-82, with further
contributions by R. Frank and B. Einarsson in SBVS 22.5 (1988),
pp. 287-9, and 23.3 (1990), pp. 80-3; I. McDougall, 'Serious
Entertainments: an Examination of a Peculiar Type of Viking
Atrocity', ASE 22 (1993), pp. 201-25; and Smyth (F51), p. 77.
A number of other persons who met their ends at the hands of the
vikings in the late ninth century were sooner or later reguarded
as saints: e.g. AEbbe (Ebba the Younger), abbess of Coldingham;
Beocca and 'Edor', of Chertsey; Haedda, abbot of Medeshamsetede
(long believed to be commemorated with his monks by the
so-called 'Haedda Stone' in Peterborough Cathedral); Ragener,
nephew of King Edmund; and Tancred, Torthred and Tova, of
Thorney. For further details, see Farmer (Q2), etc.

St Friseswide is the patroness of Oxford and Oxford University.
What is fact and what is legend? The Catholic Encyclopedia has
her listed. Since she was said to be Mercian of peerage or
royalty...is there anything out there on her line? A tree? I
am trying to discover siblings, etc. Obviously, since she was a
virgin, no lines come from her. However, I am interested in her
father, mother, etc. Thus far found a few links on the internet
(from Oxfordshire). I have gathered the following to date:
..........
Saint Frideswide's (680-727 or 735) Feast Day was October 19th.
Frideswide was the daughter of the Mercian sub-king Dida of
Eynsham and Safrida. Her father made her the founding abbess of
his monastery at Oxford.
William of Malmsbury chronicled her life in the twelfth century.
According to Malmsbury, Frideswide had to ward off the advances
of Aethbald (716-757) of Mercia. However, by the dates, I
believe that it must have been AEthelred (675-704), brother of
Wulfhere, son of Penda (?). AEthelred (reigned from 675-704) was
said to be a barbarian, like his father. He won a victory over
Eghrith of Northumbria at the battle of the River Trent in 679,
and ended Northumbrian overlordship south of the Humber and saw
the province of Lindsey pass permanently into the Mercian sphere
of influence.
Anyway, to continue the story of Frideswide: She fled into the
forests near Binsey. She is said to have blinded her attacker
because of his lustful ways, and then gave him his sight back
when he thought better of his actions.
Mercia has its native saint cults and many of the saints were
said to be of royal birth. Saint cults are discussed in Life of
St. Rumwold. However, this tale of an infant prodigy dying three
days after his birth, after having preached a sermon on the
Trinity seems highly unlikely.
During this time period, there was more oral history than
written records, so the oral tradition of mythology is all that
we know. Mercian kings claimed descent from the legendary kings
of Continental Angeln. Frideswide, herself, was said to be
related to the "Frith" family. This is named because many of her
supposed ancestors were called Frithuris, Frithwold, etc. In
fact, Frithuric may have been related to Frithwold, a subking of
Surrey under Wulfhere. Taking this legend into account,
Frideswide was related to Ethelred ... he was a cousin.
Frithuric was a princip and member of the royal house and
founder of religious houses in Mercia. When Aethelbald went into
the monkhood later in life and became abbot at Bardney in
Lincolnshire, he left his throne to Cenred (704-709) his nephew
and son of Wulfhere. However, another account said AEthelred and
Osthryth had a son named Ceolred?
Frideswide died in the monastery in Oxford, and though a fire
destroyed many church records in 1002, there is little doubt
that her relics occupied a shrine there in the eleventh century.
The church was reputed to have a dedication to St. Friswide
before the Norman Conquest, but was re-constructed as her burial
place. Her re-constructed shrine is the presbytery.
In the twelfth century, this church (Norman style) became a
house of Augustinian canons (it was formerly an Augustinian
priory), and the cult of St. Frideswide gained in popularity as
the population of Oxford began to grow.

Wm. Pettigrew
He is the immigrant ancestor of the Pettigrew family in America.
The following account of his life was written and prepared by
Penelope Johnson Allen, the State Chairman of Genealogical
Records, Tennessee Society DAR.
"Among the children of William and Martha (Moore) Pettigrew was
a son, James Pettigrew, who was born April, 1713 at Crilly
House, County Tyrone, Ireland, and he was the first American
ancestor of the family here traced.
James Pettigrew is said to have been wild in his youth and of a
forward and daring disposition. While preparing for Trinity
College at Dublin he eloped in 1731 with Mary, the daughter of
Captain George and Rachel (Higgenbotham) Cochran, of The Grange,
a beautiful Irish estate. Mary was a famous beauty of her time
and was the same age as her young husband. The couple had 13
children, eleven of whom - 6 boys and 5 girls reached the age of
maturity.
After a few years James Pettigrew made up his mind to seek his
fortune in the new world and leaving the oldest of his four
children with her grandmother in Ireland, set sail for America,
with his wife, a daughter, and two sons. They landed at New
Castle in Delaware, in 1740, and pushed westward into
Pennsylvania, where he secured 300 acres of land on Marsh Creek
near the present location of Chambersburg. In Philadelphia, he
knew the prominent men of his day, and no less a personage than
Dr. Benjamin Franklin, advised him to study medicine, but James
Pettigrew was born to adventure and followed the star of his
fortune south, through Virginia and North Carolina, and settled
at last in North Carolina, where he spent the closing years of
his life. And it is related that about this time James Pettigrew
became very religious. So strict was he in his observance of the
Sabbath that no cooking was allowed in his house on Sunday, and
to this circumstance he and his family owed their lives, for one
Sunday hostile Indians visited his premises, but seeing no
smoke, passed on, as they suposed the house to be unoccupied. In
recognition of this providential deliverance from the hands of
the redmen, he after named one of his sons, Ebenezer.
After the Pettigrew family was settled in Pennsylvania, James
sent to Ireland for his oldest daughter, who set out to join
them, but she died during the voyage to America. About this time
the French and Indian war broke out and life on the Pennsylvania
frontier became a perilous business.
After Braddock's defeat in 1755, James Pettigrew sold his land
in Pennsylvania for 80 pounds and moved to Luenburg County,
Virginia where he rented a farm and remained about three years.
Here his thirteenth child, a son, William was born, Jan 26,
1758. He then moved to Granville County, North Carolina, where
he remained ten years, and while residing there gave the land
for the establishment of a Presbyterian Church.
In 1768, hearing favorable reports from Scot-Irish settlers in
South Carolina of the land in that section James Pettugrew sold
his property in Granville County, North Carolina, and after
three weeks traveling around reached the "Long Cane Settlement",
about seven miles above Abbeville Courthouse. He stayed in this
locality for about four years. In 1773 he bought a farm in what
is now known as the "flat section" of Abbeville District,
situated on Little River. The land here was fertile, his crops
were abundant and his cattle increased. On the whole, he
continued to prosper until the outbreak among the Cherokee
Indians in 1776 sent a thrill of horror across the frontier.
Those who escaped massacre were forced to abandon their
plantations and seek safety in the Huguenot fort of James Noble,
which was commanded by Patrick Calhoun, father of James C.
Calhoun. In a short time the settlers returned home and enjoyed
tranquillity until the tide of the revolution swept to this
locality in 1779.
James Pettigrew was a stong Whig, and with several of his sons,
son-in-law, and grandsons served with the colonial troops in the
Revolutionary army.
He was somewhat skilled in medicine and, there being few
practicioners in the country, he was often called upon to give
medical aid, which he did impartially o Whig and Tory alike -
and for this reason, in the turbulent days that followed the
fall of Charleston, when the life of no man was safe in the
country, which was infested with bushwhacking of both parties,
James Pettigrew's family was a little disturbed.
Not long after the close of the war, one December day, he went
to a sacramental occasion at "Pickens" House where Abbeville
Courthouse now stands and there remained all night. The weather
was very cold and he contracted a viloent cold. Aftre the close
of the meeting, On Sunday night he rode twelve miles in bitter
weather and pneumonia developed, which resulted in his death on
Dec. 24, 1784, at the age of 71 years. His wife survived him two
years and died Oct. 7, 1786, aged 73 years."
