Æthelhelm DE WESSEX Ealdorman of Wiltshire

  • Born: Abt 859, Wessex, England
  • Died: 898

   General Notes:

Both he and his brother were too young to inherit the throne in 871 and it passed to their uncle King Alfred the Great (Ælfred) who granted them both lands. On Alfred's death in 899 his elder brother Aethelwold contested the succession and was killed. However, Aethelhelm did not and seemed content to remain Ealdorman of Wiltshire.
