The ancestry of Uhtred the Bold can be found here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rulers_of_Bamburgh

This gives Uhtred the son of Waltheof I, c920 - 995, son of Ealdred, son of Oswulf I, c946 to after 954, son of Eadwulf I “King of the Northern English” d 913, son of Æthelthryth, who was the daughter of Ælla, King of Northumbria. Oswulf and Ealdred are reversed on the geni.com lineage. After Eadwulf I a whole list of people going back to Ida are listed which may be erroneous. Eadwulf I, "King of the Northern English," on Wikipedia is given as the son of Æthelthryth, daughter of Ælla, King of Northumbria here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%86lla_of_Northumbria#:~:text=%C3%....

The ancestry of Ælla is not known.

Ok like all ancients before 1751 .. the year Ben Franklin wrote his famous essay confirming the planet was almost entirely black in 1751......this King was also black and haplogroup E. Call me anytime to discuss.

We a short while ago had the discussion about Eadwulf who died in 913 as Earl of Bamburgh and sometimes Northumberland. The point was he should not be the first Eadwulf king of Northumberland since he had agreed with King Alfred the Great of Wessex to merge Northumberland into Wessex under Alfred, thus ending the right to claim any kingship of Northumberland. It can be seen in the links given above that the Danes controlled the titles in Northumberland after 867 and the death of Aella and Osberht in the Battle of York. So Eadwulf took his son Ealdred to visit Alfred and swear allegiance to him in order to together fight against the Viking invasion of Northumberland and even Wessex. With the later victory over the Vikings, Eadwulf became the first Earl of Bamburgh. So it is wrong to call him King as Wikipedia does. There are errors also in the lineages given of Eadwulf. Also on Geni after much discussion and research we have chosen to use "ANNALES LINDISFARNENSES 797, MGH 58 XIX p. 506" and the several "Medlands" exhaustive references to documents and research to establish the Northumberland line especially that of the successive Eadwulfs and Uchtreds. There were 3 King Eadwulfs prior to the first Earl of Bamburgh. Plus there were many other kings of Northumberland as well. And regarding Uchtred the Bold, he was an Earl too, so why has somebody put in his Media a profile photo of a "King"? One of my grand father lines to Uchtred: Uchtred "the Bold", Earl of Northumbria is your 28th great grandfather.

When I first saw this name in my line of ancestry I thought of the TV series, The Last Kingdom with the opening line "I am Uhtred, son of Uhtred." Now of course that was a fictional series loosely based on events of that same era... and this Uchtred/Uhtred is not the person depicted in the TV series... but none the less, in my geeky mind it is still rather cool to be able to say, "I am Lori, 29th Great Grand-daughter of Uchtred", and know it to be true.

Uchtred "the Bold", Earl of Northumbria is your 29th great grandfather.

Lori,Lorinne Gaye (aka: Lori Joy) Remus (nee: McKay) you are entirely correct. I saw "The Last Kingdom" in about 2019 and at the same time was researching what we had on Geni regarding the Eadwulf first Earl of Bamburgh d913 line down to his 2x gt.grandson, Uchtred the Bold 971-1016 Earl of Bamburgh and Northumberland. Uchtred was aptly named "the Bold. But there were over 100 years between their deaths. I pointed that out on the About of Eadwulf II in 2019 and wrote that Eadwulf the Earl d913 must be the real character depicted historically by the author, or Eadwulf's son named Ealdred(a composite character with the reputation of Uchtred the Bold). Our profiles from Geni are picked up by Google Search and so I was surprised to find Google quoting me about who was really the main character of the mini-series.The author of the television mini-series has admitted now that he fictionalized the story of the Northumbrian who went down to Wessex to support Alfred. Just the story is true. In the closing credits it says that the characters in the series are fictional or composites. I gave one of my lines back to Uchtred through the Dunbars just like you above last February. Thanks.
