 Earl Aethelred Of Mercia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
His title was "Lord of the Mercians", and he was subject to the power of Wessex.
In 886, he was given control of London by King Alfred of Wessex, whose sister, Ethelfleda, he married.
As Alfred reconquered the Danelaw, it was useful to place the heir to the destroyed Kingdom of Mercia in control of its former area: this allowed the expansion of the Kingdom of Wessex to appear as the liberation of areas conquered by the Danes.

The history of Sussex now becomes a blank until 607, in which year Ceolwulf of Wessex is found fighting against the South Saxons.
Nunna is probably to be identified with Nun, described in the Chronicle as the kinsman of Ine of Wessex who fought with him against Geraint of Dumnonia, king of the West Welsh, in 710.
In 722 we find Ine of Wessex at war with the South Saxons, apparently because they were supporting a certain Aldbryht, probably an exile from Wessex.

It appears that Penda's sister was married to Cenwalh, king of Wessex.
The 'Chronicle' disparagingly describes Ceolwulf II as "an unwise king's thegn", however, he might possibly have been from the same branch of the Mercian nobility as Cenwulf (796-821) and his brother Ceolwulf I (821-823).
In 903, the East Anglian Danes ransacked Mercia and northern Wessex, incited by the rebel Æthelwold, cousin of Edward (Alfred's son and successor).

 Wessex
Wessex was presumably subject to Penda of Mercia during this interval.
In 715 Wessex would appear to have been invaded by the Mercians since the 'Anglo-Saxon Chronicle' notes that Ine and Ceolred "fought" at a place called 'Woddes beorge' (Woden's Barrow), which is identified with a tumulus now known as 'Adam's Grave', in Wiltshire.
The boundary between Wessex and the province of the Hwicce seems to have returned to what it was in the late seventh century with Bath and its monastery remaining Mercian possessions for the time being.
