CEOLWULF (-823 or after). "Celwall frater regis Kenulphi" subscribed a charter of "Kenulphus rex Merciorum" dated 806. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records that he succeeded his brother in 821 as CEOLWULF I King of Mercia. He continued his brother's invasions of Wales, destroying the fortress of Deganwy at the mouth of the river Conway and bringing the kingdom of Powys under their control in 822. William of Malmesbury records that he was deposed in 823 by Beornwulf. m ---. The name of Ceolwulf's wife is not known. Ceolwulf & his wife had one child:

After the death of Coenwulf in 821, the throne was handed to his brother, Ceolwulf. Unfortunately Ceolwulf didn’t have a very good time at it, and is now known as the king that ushered in the beginning of the Mercian decline. As William of Malmesbury, a prominent historian in the 12th century, wrote: “…the kingdom of the Mercians declining, and, if I may use the expression, nearly lifeless, produced nothing worthy of historical commemoration.”
What is worth noting is that Ceolwulf did, in fact for a time at least, take large swathes of the kingdom of Powys from the Welsh and subsequently brought them under Mercian control.
Ceolwulf I was deposed in 823 by a relative unknown called Beornwulf.
