The Æthelweald and Aethelweald articles appear to be the same. If so, a redirect would be better than a duplication Lavateraguy 18:18, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The dates are off, and they are listed separately in The Handbook of British Chronology which is my source for the bishop lists. Æthelweald has no known death date, but he was consecrated between 845 and 870. Aethelweald was consecrated before 945 but died after 949. 949 is more than 70 years after the latest consecration date for Æthelweald, which given the time frame is probably a bit too long to presume they are the same person.Ealdgyth | Talk 18:40, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
