Edith of Polesworth : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edith of Polesworth
Saint Edith of Polesworth (also known as Editha or Eadgyth) is an obscure Anglo-Saxon abbess associated with Polesworth (Warwickshire) and Tamworth (Staffordshire) in Mercia. Her historical identity and floruit are uncertain. Some late sources make her a daughter of King Edward the Elder, while other sources claim she is the daughter of Egbert of Wessex. Her feast day is 15 July. ==Identity== Edith (''Ealdgyth'') is included in the first section of the late Old English saints' list known as ''Secgan'', which locates her burial place at Polesworth.〔Yorke, ''Nunneries and the Anglo-Saxon royal houses'', pp. 77-8.〕 The question of St Edith's historical identity is fraught with difficulties.
