35 years ago, I spent most of my time over two summers researching the Mercian nobility at the time of the Norman conquest--Edwin, Morcar, and Edith, thinking I wanted to write a historical about Lucy (the one who married Ivo Taillebois) whom some sources back then said was yet another daughter.

So a moment or two ago, I was doublechecking that I remembered all the names rightly and found that the entry for "Ealdgyth" in the DNB is a K.L. Maund... and let out a squeal that startled all the household cats and the husband!
