Edward Atheling (1016-1057)
son of Edmund II *Ironside*, King of the English 
and Ealdgyth
Born 1016 
Died 1057 London 
Married Agatha

King Cnut had sent this aetheling away into Hungary to betray, but he there grew to be a great man, as God granted him and became him well, so that he won the emperor's relative for wife, and by her bred a fine family; she was called Agatha. We do not know for what cause it was arranged that he might not see his relative King Edward. Alas! that was a cruel fate, and harmful to all this nation, that he so quickly ended his life after he came to England, to the misfortune of this wretched nation. 
"The Worcester Manuscript".
