    Notes:

    Name:
    When Aethelred died in 1016 there were two claimants to the throne - his son, Edmund Ironside, and Sweyn's son, Canute. After several battles, the two agreed to divide the country between them. However, Edmund soon died and Canute became King. After Canute's death in 1035, the throne passed to his two sons - Harold and Harthacanute - and then in 1042, to Edward the Confessor, who reigned until 1066.

    Ruler of England, Denmark, and Norway from 1016 to 1035, Canute brought much-needed stability to the affairs of England during his reign. Although a Viking, he treated Dane and Saxon alike and wisely appointed Englishmen to positions of importance in the church and at court. His modernization of the country's laws bear this out and he may be fairly described a one of the bet kings England has ever had. After his death in 1035, Canute was mourned by both Saxon and Dane.

    Canute married Emma Princess Of NORMANDY after 1016. Emma (daughter of Richard I 'the Fearless" and Gunnor DE CREPON) died on 06 Mar 1052 in Winchester, Hampshire, England; was buried in St Martin's Church, Winchester, Hampshire, England'. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
