ÆTHELMAR. A
variant of Anglo-Saxon Aethelmaer
(q.v.), meaning "noble
greatness."
1 The words of the Liber
de Hyda, Rolls Series, London, 1866, p. 254, are: "This same
year died two ealdormen, Aethelmar in Hampshire and Eadwin in
Sussex, and Aethelmar's body lies at Winchester, for the will
contains these words, 'I give first of all to God for my soul, to the
new monastery at Winchester where it is my will that I shall rest, a
hundred mancuses of gold.' The will from other evidence must be of
about the date, and it is not probable that there were two ealdormen of
Wessex of about the same time of the name of Aethelmar and both
buried at Winchester." (The Early History of Oxford, 727-1100,
Parker, 1885)
