Very little is known for certain of the ancestry of the Godwins, the family of the last Anglo-Saxon king of England, Harold II. When King Edward the Confessor died in January 1066 his closest relative was his great-nephew, Edgar the Ætheling, but he was young and lacked powerful supporters. Harold was the head of the most powerful family in England and Edward's brother-in-law, and he became king. In September 1066 Harold defeated and killed King Harald Hardrada of Norway at the Battle of Stamford Bridge, and Harold was himself defeated and killed the following month by William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings.

  • Die Godwins waren eine bedeutende englisch-angelsächsische Adelsfamilie des 11. Jahrhunderts, die für eine kurze Zeit auch den englischen König stellte. Das nach dem bedeutenden Godwin von Wessex († 1053) in der historischen Forschung als Godwins bezeichnete Adelsgeschlecht lässt sich vielleicht bis ins 9. Jahrhundert, bis auf den westsächsischen König Ethelwulf (839–858) zurückführen. Konkrete Informationen zu der Familie liegen aber erst ab Godwin und dessen Vater Wulfnoth Cild († 1014) vor. (de)
  • Godwin de Wessex est un aristocrate anglo-saxon du début du XIe siècle. Proche du roi Knut le Grand, il est fait par lui comte de Wessex vers 1019. Sa puissance politique est considérable, et c'est grâce à son soutien qu'Édouard le Confesseur accède ensuite au trône d'Angleterre. À la mort d'Édouard, c'est son beau frère, Harold Godwinson, qui est élu roi d'Angleterre. (fr)
