Wulfnoth Cild, Earl of Sussex - Parentage and Title of Wulfnoth Cild

1. The parentage of Wulfnoth Cild is Unknown. The name of his wife is also unknown, and thus the ancestry of Godwin, Earl of Wessex (son of Wulfnoth Cild) appears to be a complete fabrication.
2. There is no evidence he functioned as Earl of Sussex, the title given on this profile. He was a South Saxon thegn, not a powerful Earl.
