Ceolwald of Wessex

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ceolwald of Wessex was a member of the House of Wessex (see House of Wessex family tree). Although a member of the direct male line from Cynric to Egbert, Ceolwald was never king due to usurpations by junior branches of the family. His birth and death dates are unknown.

His father was Cutha Cathwulf and his child Coenred of Wessex. Nothing more of him is known.
