• Notes

  Ealdorman of Northumbria. "Ealdred was probably the father of Oswulf, who later ruled in Northumbria under King Eadred (d. 955). Oswulf engineered the downfall of Erik Bloodaxe (d. 954), the last king of an independent Northumbria, so that the kingdom could be annexed by Eadred. Oswulf was a witness to several royal charters where he is identified as 'high-reeve of Bamburgh'." [Oxford Dictionary of National Biography]
