Biography of Ealmund King of Kent

Paternal Family Tree: Wessex

Ealmund King of Kent was born to Eafa Wessex.

Around 773 [his son] King Egbert of Wessex was born to Ealmund King of Kent.

Before 784 Ealmund King of Kent was appointed King of Kent. The only contemporary evidence of him is an abstract of a charter dated 784 in which Ealmund granted land to the Abbot of Reculver.

Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. 786. This year Cyneard slew King Cynewulf, and was slain himself, and eighty-four men with him. Then Bertric undertook the government of the West-Saxons, and reigned sixteen years. His body is deposited at Wareham [Map]; and his pedigree goeth in a direct line to Cerdic. At this time reigned Elmund king in Kent, the father of [his son] Egbert (age 13); and Egbert was the father of [his grandson] Athulf.
