Æthelric King Bernicia -572

Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. 685. This year [his great grandson] King Everth [aged 40] commanded Cuthbert [aged 51] to be consecrated a bishop; and Archbishop Theodore [aged 83], on the first day of Easter, consecrated him at York Bishop of Hexham; for Trumbert had been deprived of that see. The same year Everth was slain by the north sea, and a large army with him, on the thirteenth day before the calends of June. He continued king fifteen winters; and his brother Elfrith succeeded him in the government. Everth was the son of Oswy. Oswy of Ethelferth, Ethelferth of Ethelric, Ethelric of Ida, Ida of Eoppa Bernicia. About this time Ceadwall [aged 26] began to struggle for a kingdom. Ceadwall was the son of Cenberht Wessex, Kenbert of Cedda Wessex [aged 95], Chad of Cuthwine, Cutha of Ceawlin, Ceawlin of Cynric, Cynric of Cerdic. Mull, who was afterwards consigned to the flames in Kent, was the brother of Ceadwall. The same year died Lothhere, King of Kent; and John was consecrated Bishop of Hexham, where he remained till Wilferth was restored, when John was translated to York on the death of Bishop Bosa. Wilferth his priest was afterwards consecrated Bishop of York, and John retired to his monastery [Map]²¹ in the woods of Delta. This year there was in Britain a bloody rain, and milk and butter were turned to blood.
