Biography[edit | edit source]
Alongside Brant, Geadric, Holt and Octe, Sherwin faithfully served the ealdorman during his rule over the shire. With the exception of Theodric's wife Lady Eadwyn, Sherwin and the thegns openly refused to support King Aelfred of Wessex, wishing to retain their Mercian roots. Following Theodric's death at the hands of jarl Guthrum's army, Lady Eadwyn took control over the shire and sought revenge for her husband's death, immediately allying herself to King Aelfred and requesting for his aid.[1]
Sherwin and the thegns rebelled against Eadwyn's rule, resulting in their immediate capture by the Lady's men. While Geadric was captured in Buckingham, Sherwin and the rest of the thegns were held at the Leah Villa Garrison, where they stood trial for treachery against Eadwyn and the shire. Before they could be executed, the trio of Eivor Varinsdottir, Sigurd Styrbjornsson and Basim ibn Ishaq rescued the thegns on behalf of Geadric, whom they rescued in Buckingham.[1]
Trivia[edit | edit source]
