	Wessex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Wessex Constitutional Convention is an all-party pressure group in which those sympathetic to Wessex devolution who are not members of the Wessex Regionalist Party can also be represented.
		The Wessex Constitutional Convention and Wessex Society add Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire to Hardy's list; and the Wessex Regionalists, who currently use Hardy's definition of Wessex, are likely to follow suit in the near future.
		There are also a few in Hampshire who argue that southern Hampshire and the Isle of Wight were once a Jutish province in their own right and deserve to be treated differently to the rest of Wessex.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Oswald
		The West Saxons in the South, influenced by the fear of Penda, readily acknowledged Oswald, their allegiance being strengthened, in 635, by the conversion of King Cynegils, of Wessex, at whose baptism Oswald stood sponsor, and whose daughter he married.
		In the East he was supreme in Lindsey, and the words of Bede seem to imply that he was overlord of Mercia, which was still ruled by Penda; but this could have been scarcely more than nominal.

	Cynegils
		Cynegils was a genealogical placeholder used to show the relations between the kings of Wessex, however he might have been an actual historial West Saxon prince.

	Berkshire History: Biographies: St. Abban of Abingdon
		Cynegils was the son of King Ceol of Wessex.
		It was sealed by the marriage of Cynegils' son, Cenwalh, to Penda's sister.
		Wessex was again defeated, at the Battle of Cirencester, and it may have been at this time that the western section of the Wansdyke was constructed to keep the enemy from expanding further.

		Cynegils and Cwichelm of Wessex defeat the Britons at Beandun
		The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle does not mention Ceolwulf's death, it simply states that in 611 Cynegils succeeded to Wessex, and notes that he was the son of Ceola, the son of Cutha, the son of Cynric.
		He defeated Cynegils and Cwichelm of Wessex in 628 at Cirencester, probably establishing his overlordship over the Hwicce at that point, and possibly forcing Cynegils's son Cenwealh to marry his sister.

	Berkshire History: Biographies: St. Birinus (c.600-649)
		Cynegils arranged negotiations at his palace in Easthampstead (Berkshire), and the King of Northumbria travelled down to meet him.
		Other churches in Wessex have a lesser claim to a Birinian foundation: St. Mary's, Reading (Berkshire); St. Helen's, Abingdon (Berkshire) and the parish church of Taplow (Buckinghamshire), where the saint is said to have bapised the local Saxons in Bapsey Pond.
		Cynegils allowed Birinus to preach throughout his Kingdom, but it took a while before he himself was totally converted.

	Patron Saints Index: Saint Oswald of Northumbria
		Married the daughter of King Cynegils of Wessex, and convinced Cynegils to allow Saint Birinus to evangelize in that kingdom.

		Built churches and monasteries in his realm, and brought in monks from Scotland to help establish monastic life.

	Wessex
		Cynegils and Cwichelm fought with Penda at Cirencester, and afterwards entered into a treaty there." It seems extremely likely that the West-Saxons were forced to cede Cirencester and the land along the Severn (purportedly captured from the Britons, by Ceawlin, in 577) to Penda.
		Cynegils' regnal length of thirty-one years, for example, could embrace the reign of an earlier and forgotten King Cwichelm in the 620s.
		Wessex was presumably subject to Penda of Mercia during this interval.

		Cynegils was succeeded as king by his son Cenwalh (reigned 643-672), who married Penda's sister but soon discarded her.
		Cynegils and his son Cwichelm lost the provinces of the Hwicce (Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, and southwest Warwickshire) to Penda of Mercia.
		These regions were held by the Mercians from 661 to 686, and, according to the Venerable Bede's Historia ecclesiastica, Wessex was temporarily divided among subkings after Cenwalh's death.During this period, however, kings of Wessex won victories over the Britons, expanding steadily westward.

	SAINT BIRINUS OF WESSEX - A Holy Orthodox Saint of Britain
		Birinus then travelled to the court of King Cynegils of Wessex, who welcomed him and gave him permission to preach to the people.
		But Cynegils' other son, Cenwalh, initially refused baptism, and became Christian, not through Birinus, but through St. Felix, bishop of Dunwich in East Anglia.
		In 635 King Cynegils and many of his people were baptized by Birinus in Dorchester-on-Thames, which became his episcopal see and the center of his ministry.
