2. BOLD, Uhtred the (son of Living); died in 1016. Other Events and Attributes:
- Relation to Me: 30 GGF
- Royalty & Nobility: Ealdorman of all Northumbria
Notes:
The killing of Uhtred by Thurbrand the Hold started a blood feud that lasted for many years. Uhtred's son Ealdred subsequently avenged his father by killing Thurbrand, but Ealdred in turn was killed by Thurbrand's son, Carl. Ealdred's vengeance had to wait until the 1070s, when Waltheof, Ealdred’s grandson had his soldiers kill most of Carl's sons and grandsons. This is an example of the notorious Northumbrian blood feuds that were common at this time.
