Note 159 — Chapter V
Reading edition
Florence tells us that Thurkil's wife bore the name Edith (Chronicon, i., 183). The Jómsvikingasaga (c. 52) has Thurkil marry Ethelred's daughter Ulfhild, Ulfketel's widow. However, Ethelred had a daughter Edith who was married to Eadric. (Florence, Chronicon, i., 161.) For a discussion of the subject see Freeman, Norman Conquest, i., Notes nn and ss.
