Æthelburh of Wilton
Æthelburh or Alburga of Wilton (died 810), was a member of the royal house of Wessex, abbess of Wilton and a saint.
Alburga was the daughter of Ealhmund of Kent, Subregulus of Kent, half-sister of Egbert, King of Wessex, and wife of Wulfstan, ealdorman of Wiltshire (also known as Weohstan).〔(The Peerage.com - Saint Alburga )〕
On her husband's death in 802, she turned the college of secular priests which he had established in an old church in Wilton, Wiltshire, into a Benedictine convent with twelve nuns, of which she became the abbess and is held to be the founder.〔Farmer, D.H.: The Oxford Dictionary of Saints, p. 10〕 She died there on Christmas Day 810, and her feast is celebrated accordingly on 25 December.
